20 February 2025 | 11 replies
.- Types of Floods: Includes heavy rainfall, storm surges, and river overflow.- Elevation and Distance from Water: Higher and farther properties generally face lower risk.- Rebuilding Costs: Higher-value homes may have higher premiums due to more expensive repairs.What This Means for Homeowners- Fairer Premiums: Properties with lower risk may see lower premiums, while higher-risk properties may face increased costs.- Gradual Rate Increases: Increases are phased in over time for policyholders who see higher premiums, with annual caps on the rate hike.- More Predictable Rates: Rates better reflect the real risk rather than just being based on a flood zone map.Example Scenario (Simplified)- Old System: A house in a designated flood zone pays $1,000 annually, regardless of its elevation or distance from the water.- Risk Rating 2.0: That same house may now pay $1,200 if it's closer to the water and more vulnerable or $800 if it's higher up and better protected.Flood zones still matter under Risk Rating 2.0, but their role has changed.
