Stay Afloat With Flood Insurance
Flood losses are generally not included in a standard home, renters, or business property insurance policy. A separate flood insurance policy is usually needed for flood-related damage to a home, business, building, or contents.
Flood damage can be costly, and you do not have to live along the coast or in a high-risk flood zone for flooding to occur. Greenville-area properties may face flooding from heavy rainfall, flash floods, creek or stream overflow, tropical storms, drainage problems, stormwater runoff, or low-lying property conditions.
Floods can be caused by:
- Flash Floods
- Heavy Rainstorms
- Hurricanes And Tropical Systems
- River Flooding
- Creek Or Stream Overflow
- Poor Drainage Or Overwhelmed Stormwater Systems
- Water Back-Up Caused By Inadequate Or Overflowed Drainage Systems
- Stormwater Runoff
- Low-Lying Or Poorly Draining Property Conditions
Flood insurance may be available through the National Flood Insurance Program, private flood insurance markets, or other options depending on the property, location, and eligibility. Chandler Insurance can help you compare available flood insurance options for your home, rental property, or business in Greenville and surrounding Upstate communities.
Flood Insurance FAQs
What Is The Cost Of Flood Insurance In South Carolina?
Flood insurance costs vary by property and policy. The amount you pay may depend on several factors, including:
- Property Location
- Flood Zone Or Flood Risk
- Age And Construction Of The Home Or Building
- Lowest Floor Elevation And Relation To The Base Flood Elevation
- Amount And Type Of Insurance Selected
- National Flood Insurance Program Vs. Private Flood Insurance Carrier
- Deductibles And Policy Limits
- Prior Flood Claims
- Whether The Property Is A Primary Residence, Rental Property, Or Business Property
Properties in higher-risk flood zones may cost more to insure, but flooding can also happen outside high-risk areas. Reviewing your property’s flood exposure can help you understand available options before a storm, heavy rain event, or drainage issue occurs.
Is Flood Insurance Required?
A mortgage lender may require flood insurance if your property is located in a high-risk flood area and is secured by a federally backed mortgage.
Even when flood insurance is not required by a lender, it may still be worth discussing. Flooding can occur in moderate-risk and lower-risk areas, and standard home or business property policies generally do not include flood-related damage.
For properties in Greenville and the Upstate, flood risk may be influenced by heavy rainfall, nearby creeks or streams, stormwater drainage, low-lying land, development patterns, and the way water moves across or near the property.
If you own a home, rental property, condo, or business in Greenville, Simpsonville, Greer, Mauldin, Travelers Rest, Taylors, Easley, Fountain Inn, or another Upstate community, Chandler Insurance can help you review your flood insurance options.
