Rumeur:I don’t need flood insurance if I can get disaster assistance from FEMA.
Fait
This is not true. A flood insurance policy covers you during different flood events. FEMA disaster assistance is only available when a federal disaster is declared by the president. Additionally, grants provided by FEMA are not always enough to cover all losses.
Visit the National Flood Insurance Program page for more information.
