Flood INsurance in Rhode Island

Living in Rhode Island can be wonderful, but it's important to know that your standard home insurance policy probably won't cover flooding caused by rain, overflowing rivers, or flooded streets. The Slocum Agency, Inc. cares about your home and wants to help you understand the benefits of flood insurance.

So, what is flood insurance?

It's a policy that covers your home and belongings in case the worst happens and you experience flood damage. With flood insurance, you can get the help and support you need to clean up the damage and restore your home to its former state.

Am I Required to Buy Flood Insurance?

If you take out a mortgage for a high-risk property, your lender may require you to carry flood insurance. If you're not required to have it, we strongly advise you to get it to protect your home.

When Should I Buy Flood Insurance?

Timing is important when it comes to flood insurance. Policies in Rhode Island have a 30-day waiting period, so if you don't have flood insurance, it's time to act now. Call the Slocum Agency, Inc. today to get started on protecting your home and everything inside it.
