We went to Kin insurance. They were about $1800 for the home but less than $300 for the flood. I still don't get it, a $2500 difference for the flood quote. Anyhow, Kin has been pretty good customer service as we sign up.
Please verify, but I believe Kin self-insures their flood protection and is not the same insurance as from the Federal government. Not sure if this is a concern but should be known by the policyholder.
