Flood Insurance in Florida—Clear, Local Guidance
Why Flood Insurance Matters in Florida
Flood damage is not covered by standard homeowners insurance. In Florida, flooding can occur from storm surge, heavy rain, canal overflow, or drainage issues — even outside designated flood zones. Whether a lender requires coverage or you simply want to protect your property, flood insurance provides essential protection for your home and belongings. We help Florida homeowners understand their options and choose coverage that fits the property, location, and budget.
What Flood Insurance Covers
Building Coverage
Protects the structure of your home or condo, including foundation, walls, electrical systems, plumbing, and major appliances.
Contents Coverage
Covers personal belongings such as furniture, clothing, electronics, and certain valuables (with limits).
Deductibles & Limits
Flood policies have separate deductibles for building and contents, with coverage limits that vary by policy type.
What’s Not Covered
Items like vehicles, outdoor property, and temporary living expenses are typically excluded.
Waiting Periods
Most flood policies have a waiting period before coverage begins. We’ll explain timelines so there are no surprises.
NFIP vs. Private Flood Insurance in Florida
Florida homeowners may qualify for flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or through private flood insurers. NFIP policies are federally backed and commonly used for lender-required coverage. Private flood insurance may offer higher limits, additional options, or different pricing depending on the property. We quote both when available and review the differences in plain language so you can choose confidently.
Flood risk varies widely across Florida. From coastal exposure near Jupiter Inlet, the Loxahatchee River area, and communities near Juno Beach and Tequesta, to inland flooding after heavy rain, flood losses are not limited to high-risk zones. The same applies statewide — including Miami–Fort Lauderdale, Tampa Bay, Orlando, Jacksonville, Naples/Fort Myers, and Sarasota. We tailor coverage based on location, elevation, and property characteristics.
