When streets turn to rivers, flood insurance can help you recover faster! Did you know, when a flood is forecast or imminent, a National Flood Insurance Policy (NFIP) will cover up to $1,000 in allowable expenses to protect or move insured property to safety?

Flooding can be emotionally and financially devastating, with just one inch of flood water potentially causing more than $25,000 in damage. An active NFIP policy can help protect your home, including up to $250,000 for a building structure and up to $100,000 for contents such as clothing, furniture, electronics and food.

For the past several years, hurricanes and off-season rain events have caused above-average flooding, a trend resulting in more flood events. Even if your home has flooded before, you are not automatically disqualified from purchasing flood insurance.

Act now! In most cases, it takes up to 30 days for flood insurance to go into effect. Visit FloodSmart.gov or call 800-427-4661 to learn more.
