Homeowners in Florida may be all too aware of the risk of flooding. While some people make it their business to be well informed and take out appropriate flood insurance, there remain a number who, for one reason or another, choose not to do so. Some of these people may be unfortunate enough to have had their homes affected by flood, after which they may have received Federal Disaster assistance in the form of a grant or loan. It is important for these people to now seek their own FL flood insurance coverage, as they will not be able to receive this Federal assistance a second time.

In Florida the timely payment of your motor vehicle insurance premiums is very important if you wish to enjoy ongoing coverage. Under Florida law there is no “grace-period” allowed on renewals meaning that you may not be covered in the event of an accident if you have a lapse. Keep your Florida insurance agency notified at all times of any change of address or personal details to help ensure you are reminded when insurance is due for renewal.
