Every storm season, we continue to hear how there hasn’t been a storm this big in the past 100 years. Isn’t it time to start protecting what’s important to you? You can do that with Flood Insurance from Selective.
 
Flood Facts:
  • Floods are the #1 natural disaster in the United States.
  • All 50 states have experienced flooding, including flash flooding, in the past five years.
  • Scientists have found that the amount of rain produced by heavy rainstorms has gone up 10% since 1900.
  • Extreme rainfall events are trending upward, nine of the top ten years for extreme one-day precipitation events have happened since 1990.
  • Floods can happen anywhere, not just in the high-risk flood zones. Historically, properties in low-risk flood areas account for more than 20% of the recorded flood losses.
  • Most homeowners, renters and business property insurance policies do not cover damage caused by flooding.
Don’t wait for the next big storm. For a list of agencies that can help in your area, please contact floodcustomerservice@selective.com or call (877) 348-0552.
