This date will not go down in history – why? Deeley Insurance Group is ready for these changes!
We are working diligently to implement a review of each and every flood policy that we write in Ocean City and Worcester County.
As a large portion of Ocean City is mapping in to new zones some businesses and homeowners will have the option to discontinue flood insurance coverage.
The following are a few great reasons why every home and business should consider flood insurance even if you are in a low risk flood zone.
- Ocean City remains a barrier island surrounded by water and lots of it.
- The Mayor and Council of Ocean City are urging residents to continue to purchase flood insurance.
- Over a 30 year mortgage you have a 26% chance of damage from a flood and a 9% chance of damage from fire.
- 20% of claims filed through the National Flood Insurance Program occur in a low risk flood plain.
- Floods can happen anywhere.
- Most property and homeowner policies do not offer any coverage against a flood.
