Flood Insurance

National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)

  • This is a program managed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and is delivered to the public by the NFIP and more than 50 insurance companies
  • Provides flood insurance to property owners, renters, and businesses. Having this coverage can help them recover quicker when floodwaters recede
  • Please note that even if flood insurance is not considered mandatory by FEMA for a particular address, a mortgage-holder may require it in order to meet the requirements for a mortgage on that property.
