RULE 10.9 - FEDERAL FLOOD INSURANCE

Our Rental Dwelling policy does not provide flood coverage.

The National Flood Insurance Program was established by the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968. It provides flood coverage to those residences in flood prone areas.

Flood insurance is required for federally insured loans for the purchase or improvement of structures located in special flood hazard areas.

The National Flood Insurance Program establishes the rates, rules and risk rating zones. Coverage may be purchased through the alternative flood programs available.

If there is no mortagagee on the dwelling and the dwelling is in a floodplain, the applicant must show proof of flood insurance.
