Flood risk zones
Posted On: August 12, 2020

Flood risk zones are areas that are prone to flooding. Each zone has a different flood risk, low to moderate and high. Depending on the location, flood insurance rates will vary. Those with a higher risk will pay less than properties in a low to moderate zone. High-risk properties require flood insurance before banks can release a mortgage.


When purchasing flood insurance for the first time, you may have many questions, and Holt Flood Insurance is here to help. Such as, do I go with a private company or the NFIP? Do I need flood insurance in a low-risk zone? And many more. With over 30 years of flood insurance experience, you can trust us to deliver the answers you need. And if we don't have an answer right away, we will get back to you as soon as possible.


You can find flood risk zones by looking at the flood map. A flood map is a tool created by FEMA with the help of communities to indicate levels of risk for specific areas. The map uses letters B, C, and X to indicate low-risk areas and A and V to indicate high-risk areas for flooding. Not only is the flood map a valuable tool for potential property owners. Flood insurance companies use it to determine flood insurance costs.
