Everyone Needs Flood Insurance
Why You Should Buy Flood Insurance
▪ Just one inch of water can cause roughly $25,000 of damage to your property.
▪ Most homeowners and renters insurance policies do not cover flood damage—only flood insurance can financially protect your building and contents from a flood event.
