Do you live in a flood plain? That is, an area that is subject to flooding, where you should consider Flood Insurance. Now you can find out with this interactive FEMA Flood Map. Use it by searching by your zip code. If you are in a flood zone, get flood insurance!
Whether you are in a high risk zone or not, you may need flood insurance because most homeowners insurance doesn't cover flood damage. If you live in an area with low or moderate flood risk, you are 5 times more likely to experience flood than a fire in your home over the next 30 years. For many, a National Flood Insurance Program's flood insurance policy could cost less than $400 per year. Call your insurance agent today and protect what you've built.
