Question
What is the name of your state? KY
Is flood insurance required by law? I was told that a grid is used to determine if a house is in a flood zone or not and I remember my mom (I inherited her house) said something one time about it being required where we live due to a creek at the bottom of our driveway that runs along the property, but our house is on a hill (the only way water could reach the house would be if the world flooded like 'Noah's Ark' or something). Can you tell me anything about this?
Answer
There is a lot of information on the National Flood Insuarnce program at -- yours is not an insurance LAW question.
Answer
Thanks. Flood insurance is required by the mortgage lender.
