Why Is Flood Insurance Important?
According to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), nearly 20% of all flood insurance claims are made by homeowners living in areas considered a low risk for a flood. That means regardless of whether your mortgage company required you to purchase flood insurance, your home is at risk for flooding.

Are You Prepared?
Flood insurance provides valuable peace of mind even if you live in a low-risk area.
Flood insurance is a specialized policy that covers damage to your home and belongings caused by flooding—a risk that’s not typically covered under standard homeowners insurance. If you live in a flood-prone area or near a body of water, it can help protect you from major financial losses.
Flood insurance generally covers structural damage to your home (foundation, walls, electrical and plumbing systems) and personal property like furniture, appliances, and clothing. Coverage depends on your policy type—building, contents, or both—so it's important to review your plan carefully.
Flood insurance is required if you live in a high-risk flood zone and have a federally backed mortgage. However, even if it's not mandatory, flood insurance can be a smart investment, as floods can happen in low-risk areas too.
You can purchase flood insurance through the Samar I Insurance Agency. Your insurance agent can help you compare options and choose the best plan based on your property and location.
Flood insurance premiums vary based on your property's location, flood zone, elevation, age, and the amount of coverage you select. Policies in lower-risk areas are generally more affordable. Requesting a personalized quote is the best way to get an accurate cost.
