Flood Insurance for Florida Homeowners, Renters, and Business Owners in Tampa, Orlando, Tallahassee, Jacksonville, Panama City, and All Other Areas of Florida.

As any resident of the state knows, Florida is especially susceptible to flooding due to the low-lying terrain, our frequently heavy rain, and hurricanes. But, what many homeowners don’t know is that home insurance policies DO NOT cover losses from floods, leaving your belongings and the structural integrity of your home unprotected. In addition, the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) only offers coverage of up to $250,000. If your home and its belongings are worth more than that, then you’ll need additional coverage to take care of the rest.

As any resident of the state knows, Florida is especially susceptible to flooding due to the low-lying terrain, our frequently heavy rain, and hurricanes.

If your home and its belongings are worth more than that, then you’ll need additional coverage to take care of the rest.

Although many homes in Florida are required to have flood insurance, even homes that are out of the high risk areas can still be seriously damaged by high waters and heavy rain, making flood insurance one of the smartest investments a homeowner – or renter – can make. In fact, just two inches of water in your home could cost you up to $7,800, and almost a quarter of NFIP claims are made by those in low to moderate risk areas.*

If you want to protect your home and its contents, then OIG can help. We offer flood insurance to Florida property owners, renters, and business owners throughout the state, from our hometown of Tampa to Orlando and across the coast to St Augustine.

At OIG Insurance, providing you with an accurate flood insurance quote is our most important goal – by using specific information about your home, including base flood elevation as it compares to your lowest floor, we can calculate the best possible rate. Many agents quote flood incorrectly, resulting in higher premiums than necessary, but the experts at Otero can provide you with a precise, accurate quote to ensure you get the coverage you need at a price you can handle. Whether you’re looking for building and contents coverage, or content only, we can help you find an affordable policy that is tailored to your requirements.

 

For more information on coverage in your city, or to request a free, personalized flood insurance quote for your Florida residence or business, call or e-mail OIG today. Our friendly, professional, and knowledgeable agents will be happy to answer any questions and determine the best coverage for your needs. Our flood Insurance is also available in Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi.
