Most&nbsp;homeowners&nbsp;who carry flood insurance while under a mortgage continue to carry flood insurance once they pay off their homes as well.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>However, if you are just renting your home or apartment and live in a flood zone, you are not required to have flood insurance. To protect yourself, you should consider investing in flood insurance this summer.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Many people incorrectly assume that their renters insurance will cover their belongings in the event of a flood. Your renters insurance will cover&nbsp;your&nbsp;belongs in the event of loss, thief and fire. However, it will not cover your belongings in the event of a flood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Many people also incorrectly believe that they are covered under their apartment or property&nbsp;management&#8217;s insurance. This is not the case. Their insurance covers structural damage to&nbsp;<em><span>their&nbsp;<\/span><\/em>building. It does not cover damage to&nbsp;<em><span>your<\/span><\/em>&nbsp;belongings. They are looking after their best interests, not your best interests.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The good news is that if you live in a flood zone, it only takes a small monthly investment to add flood insurance to your renter&rsquo;s insurance policy. Adding flood insurance ensures that you are covered no matter the situation.&nbsp;It will not cost anywhere near the amount of homeowner&#8217;s flood insurance costs since it only has to cover the costs of your belongs, and not the cost of the structure you live in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Talk to your insurance agent today about adding flood insurance to your renter&#8217;s insurance policy.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Are you covered?
