Another common misconception is that flood insurance is very costly to purchase. FEMA has set zones in regards to flood areas, if your home is located in a low-risk zone, then the chances are your insurance will be very affordable. The other belief is that if my home or business isn’t located in a flood zone, near the ocean, river or waterway than I’m fine.
