Florida Homeowners Want to Know If Flood Insurance is Necessary
Is flood insurance really necessary if you aren’t in a high-risk area?
The truth is everyone is in a flood zone. The question is which flood zone? You may not be in a high-risk area or required to carry flood insurance for your property. However, the risk of flood damage remains for all homeowners.
According to the Federal Emergency Management Association (FEMA), a flood is the top natural disaster in the U.S. Our potential for flooding is even greater here in Florida due to hurricanes and tropical storms that take place each year. Rather than finding yourself in a worst-case scenario if your home is impacted by flooding, turn to our team at Meek Insurance Group to take a proactive approach through affordable flood insurance.
