I’ve been told 1000 times TV would not be able to build in a flood zone, unless they did something to take that designation off. And it would just take time for the designation to be removed. Until then, I had 2 flood insurance options from my insurance company, USAA. USAA does not itself carry flood insurance. But they did steer me to 2 available sources thru them. FEMA was one, a no name aftermarket company was the other. The difference between the two? No name has no garantee it will still be solvent, have the money, if the need ever presented itself. Both were the same price @ $1400 annually. My neighbor used Lloyds with a much lower cost, which I will look into when my 1 year policy is coming to an end. Hoping TV entices FEMA to change their maps soon.
