Homeowners in a high-risk flood zone, A or V, and who have a mortgage are required to have flood insurance. However, as history has proven, homeowners should not be lured into a false sense of security if they are outside of the “high-risk” flood zones and think a flood insurance policy is not needed. No one property is without potential flood risk; wherever it rains, it can flood:
Throughout the United States, 25% of all flood claims were located outside of “high risk” A and V zones meaning X zones are also at risk
River and lake flooding, along with flash floods from rain, are material risks not covered by homeowner’s insurance
