Flood Insurance


Flood Insurance Information

Floods are natural disasters that can strike with little warning, causing extensive damage to homes, businesses and communities. In Iowa, where rivers, creeks and heavy rainfall are part of the landscape, protecting your property with flood insurance is crucial.

Assess Your Risk

The first step in determining how much flood insurance you need is to assess your risk of flooding. While certain areas of Iowa may be more prone to flooding than others, no property is entirely immune to the risk. FEMA’s Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) provide valuable information about flood zones and the level of risk in your area. Properties located in high-risk flood zones, such as those designated as Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), are more likely to experience flooding and may be required to carry flood insurance.

Understand Your Coverage Options

Flood insurance in the United States is primarily provided through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), administered by FEMA. NFIP policies offer coverage for both buildings and contents, with separate limits for each.

Consider Your Property’s Value

When deciding how much flood insurance you need, consider the value of your property and its contents. Keep in mind that standard homeowners’ insurance policies do not cover flood damage, so flood insurance may be your primary source of financial protection in the event of a flood. Evaluate the replacement cost of your home and its contents to determine appropriate coverage limits.
