Flood Insurance Information for Roswell Homeowners

September 7, 2011 by  
Filed under Real Estate

Did you know that most property insurance does not cover flooding? Did you know that every property, not simply those located near streams or with a history of flooding, carries some risk of flooding?

Flood insurance policies and rates are based upon a property’s location on a flood map which illustrates areas of high and low risks for flooding. The lower the risk area on a flood map, the lower the insurance premium. Often only property owners in areas of high risk are informed of flood insurance though it is available for all properties regardless of location or history.

With new flood maps currently underway via the joint efforts of the City of Roswell, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, residents should be advised about the flood risk associated with their properties. The new maps may prove some properties to be at higher, or lower, risks of flooding than originally thought which could affect one’s insurance. Read more
