Update: Flood Program Extended 2 Weeks

NFIP EXTENDED FOR 2 WEEKS

Yesterday, Congress extended the National Flood Insurance Program for 2 weeks until December 22nd, 2017.

 

While this may temporarily relieve the urgency of a program lapse, we still urge you to be vigilant and follow these recommendations:

 

  • If your flood insurance policy is due for renewal in the next 45 days, renew the policy as soon as possible
  • If you are closing on a house after December 22nd, consider paying the flood policy now or move the closing before December 22nd
  • Consult your insurance agent and lender for your own specific situation

 

We will continue to keep you informed as we approach the next deadline.  We are advocating Congress for a long term reauthorization of the NFIP.
