Let me start by saying that I hate flood insurance. I hate discussing it, I hate selling it. I realize that there is a need but have seen too many good insurance companies dragged through the mud because the policy purchased was not what the insured needed and it was not explained properly but it is always the company's fault. I would rather that my clients purchase flood coverage through their mortgage company or local bank before asking me to write the policy. My question is this: I look at a property policy which has a separate flood policy and look up the address on the flood map. I see a house at the top of the hill which would appear to have no chance to ever have a flood policy kick in for coverage. Looks like the lender decided that it was necessary. I never want to advise to remove something that the customer has in place and is happy with. do I move along or contact the customer and discuss what needs to happen before the flood policy kicks in?
