Flood Insurance in Florida
Many property owners assume their homeowners insurance will protect them from every type of water damage. However, standard property insurance typically does not cover flooding caused by rising water, storm surge, overflowing waterways, or heavy rainfall. Flood insurance can provide important protection beyond the coverage included in your existing property policy.
Additional Protection for Your Property
If you live in a high-risk flood zone, your lender may require you to carry flood insurance. Even when coverage is not mandatory, purchasing a policy may still be a wise step. Flooding can happen in areas that have never experienced problems before, and cleanup, repairs, and replacement costs can quickly become overwhelming.
A flood policy may help protect your home and certain belongings from covered flood-related losses. Coverage details, exclusions, waiting periods, and limits can vary, so reviewing the policy carefully with an experienced agent is essential.
