Flooding is the most common natural disaster in the United States
- Most homeowners insurance does not cover flood damage.
- Floods and flash floods happen in all 50 states.
- Just an inch of water can cause costly damage to both the home and the property.
- Roughly 25% of all flood claims paid by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) are for policies in low-to-moderate-risk areas.
- If a home is in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), it has a 26% chance of being damaged by a flood during the course of a 30-year mortgage— compared to a 9% chance of fire.
- New land development can increase flood risk, especially if the construction changes natural runoff paths.
- Federal disaster assistance after a flood is usually a loan that must be paid back with interest.
What is a Flood Analysis?
A Flood Analysis is a concise, homebuyer-friendly report that shows at a glance:
- An aerial view of a property.
- Whether or not a property is located within a Special Flood Hazard Area (high-risk flood zone).
- Whether or not a property is located within 1,000 feet of a Special Flood Hazard Area.
- If the community currently participates in FEMA's National Flood Insurance Program.
