Flood Insurance
Every property can be at risk for a flood — America’s most common disaster. Before any dark clouds loom over you, explore how UPC Insurance, partnering with the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and our private flood market, offers a full suite of flood insurance options.
If It Rains, Your Flood Risk Is Real
Flood insurance is one of the smartest decisions you can make for your home, family, and financial security. Even if you live outside a flood hazard area, your home, family, and belongings could still be at risk. In fact, 20-25% of all floods
affect medium- and low-risk areas.
Can You Afford NOT to Have Flood Coverage?
Federal assistance isn’t always available after a flood. Only 50% of all floods generate federal assistance. Plus, if you live in a vulnerable area, you’re 26 times more likely to suffer a flood than a fire over the life of a 30-year mortgage, according to the Federal Insurance Administration (FIA).
When you live in a low- to medium-risk area, flood insurance is less expensive than it is for those living in high-risk areas. Nevertheless, you obtain the same benefits of security and peace of mind.
