Flooding can happen in many places, not just high-risk zones, and standard home and renters policies don't cover it.
Good to know
- Flood insurance is available through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and some private insurers
- NFIP policies typically have a 30-day waiting period before coverage starts
- Renters can buy flood coverage for their belongings
- Check your area's flood risk at FloodSmart.gov
Check FloodSmart.gov and FEMA.gov for current details. Savings Nestle isn't paid by any insurer, agent or broker.
