Flood insurance is easy to obtain and is affordable for many people.
Floods may be caused by heavy rains, drainage problems, water backups, or a number of other reasons. You don't have to live near a lake, stream or other body of water to have flood damage. Any home can become flooded. Flood damage is not covered under most homeowner's insurance policies. However, you may purchase flood insurance for your home, business or building as well as the contents of that property.
