Home Insurance Guide

I unearthed this gem of an article back in 1991 in the New York Times regarding heavy flooding in the New England area, stretching from New Jersey to Maine. The article goes on to discuss how even though you may not have separate flood insurance coverage with your regular homeowner’s insurance you may be covered by the Federal National Flood Insurance Program. If you are in a flood prone area, your lender may have forced you to enroll at the time of purchase to protect them. So, if you’re dealing with the aftermath of a flood and realized that you don’t have flood insurance, you might luck out and have it through the NFIP.
