Flooding is a national problem...
In 1968, Congress created
the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). This was needed
because of the sharply rising costs of emergency relief to property
owners after a flood. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
manages the NFIP, and works with almost 20,000 communities across the
country to enforce floodplain management ordinances.
Millions of homeowners now
have valuable protection against a flood loss. It is
available to every resident of communities that participate in the NFIP,
regardless of whether the structure is located in a mapped flood plain.
Flood insurance can be purchased through us or the NFIP directly. There
is a 30-day waiting period before coverage under a new policy
takes effect.
Please let us know if you
would like to discuss this often overlooked coverage.
