Flood Insurance

It may not rain often in Southern Arizona. But during the summer monsoon storms, the rain can cause severe flooding in your home, even if it is not located in a flood zone.

At the Walker Insurance Agency, a member of our team will personally review your coverage to make sure you have the amount of flood protection that you want—just in case the unexpected happens.

In 1968, Congress created the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). This was needed because of the sharply rising costs of emergency relief to property owners after a flood. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) manages the NFIP, and works with almost 20,000 communities across the country to enforce floodplain management ordinances.

Millions of homeowners now have valuable protection against a flood loss. It is available to every resident of communities that participate in the NFIP, regardless of whether the structure is located in a mapped flood plain.

Flood insurance can be purchased through the Walker Insurance Agency or directly through the NFIP. However, regardless of where the policy is purchased, there is a 30-day waiting period before coverage under a new policy takes effect. 

Jasic, Mindy or another member of the team would be more than happy to personally sit down with you to review the flood insurance plans available, and also ensure that you are taken care of. The Walker Insurance Agency helps protect what is most important to you.
