Insurance Gaps Are Leaving Clients Vulnerable Many clients assume their standard insurance will cover flood damage, but gaps are common. As an insurance professional, it’s critical to educate clients on the necessity of flood insurance. #FloodCoverage #InsuranceEducation #FloodRisk #BeyondFloods #InsuranceGaps #AgentTips

Flooding Risks Are Growing—Are Your Clients Covered? As floods become bigger and more frequent, the risk of insurance gaps is increasing. Traditional policies may not cover the full extent of flood damages. Make sure your clients understand their risk and provide them with the right flood insurance solutions. #FloodInsurance #RiskManagement #InsuranceProfessionals #BeyondFloods #ClimateRisk #ClientProtection

 Important NFIP Update for Insurance Agents 🌧️   The NFIP has released several updates that may impact your clients’ flood insurance policies. Here’s a breakdown of the key points, along with what they mean for you as an agent:   Claims Process Updates: Streamlined procedures for claims handling will lead to quicker payouts and simplified processes when clients need to file a claim due to flood damage. Extension of Renewal Grace Period: The renewal grace period has been extended, giving clients more time to renew their policies without lapse in coverage. This helps agents ensure continuous coverage for their clients during busy storm seasons. Extension of Underpayment Grace Period: The grace period for addressing underpayments has also been extended. This gives clients extra time to correct any underpayment issues and maintain coverage without interruption.   You can read the full article below: https://shorturl.at/rmNyn   We’re here to support you and your clients through these changes! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.   #FloodInsurance #NFIPUpdates #InsuranceAgents #HurricaneSeasonPrep #PolicyChanges #FloodPreparedness #StayInformed #HurricaneHelene #HurricaneMilton
