WHY CHOOSE AN NCIP FLOOD INSURANCE POLICY
For many years, Americans had just one choice when it came to flood insurance: the government’s nationalized flood insurance program known as the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Now you can get access to broader coverage at a lower price from the Natural Catastrophe Insurance Program (NCIP) at CATcoverage.com.
Most floods are over before property owners can prepare for them and most homeowners insurance doesn’t cover flooding.
The maximum limit of homeowners flood insurance available from the government is $250K and more than two properties or two acres of land must be inundated for the government to recognize an event as covered.
A small monthly payment now could save your client tens of thousands of dollars in the event of a flood.
