5. Flood Insurance (Separate Policy)
• Flood insurance provides coverage when
water enters your home from the ground.
• This is a separate policy. Flood is not covered
on the homeowners insurance policy.
• If you are not in a high flood zone, the
premium for a flood insurance policy is as little
as $250 - $350.

6. Water Damage
• Water can damage a home in many different ways in your home and
the cost of repair can be very expensive.
• Your homeowners insurance policy might not provide coverage in
specific situations depending on how and why the water is causing
damage.
• If you have a specific concern, talk to your insurance agent to make
sure you are protected in the event of a loss.
