Private flood beats NFIP on higher limits, replacement-cost contents, 24-to-48-hour bind versus the 30-day NFIP wait, and broader coverages like business income. Build flood into every coverage review, get an MGA appointment alongside your NFIP access, and document every client's decision in writing.

Most agents assume clients in low-risk zones don't need flood. More than 40% of NFIP claims come from outside high-risk zones. Document the flood conversation, learn NFIP Risk Rating 2.0, and quote private flood for higher limits and replacement-cost settlement before clients find the gap after a loss.

Agents commonly leave clients underinsured: NFIP building caps at $250K, contents are sub-limited, and the 30-day waiting period traps clients who buy reactively. NFIP Risk Rating 2.0 changes pricing, and private flood offers higher limits, broader coverage, and shorter waits worth quoting on every account.

Most P&C agents leave money on the table in flood because the line looks like a low-commission headache.

Specialize and dominate local search.
