Homeowners
policies do NOT cover flood damage
- The
average 30-year mortgage has a 1% chance of fire, and a
26% chance of flood loss
- Over half of
all recent flooding events have occurred in non-High Risk
flood zones
- Federal
disaster assistance is a loan, it averages $3,500 and it
must be paid back with interest
- Residential
flood insurance can be as inexpensive as shown below for
non-High Risk flood zones and credit cards are accepted.
