Do I need flood insurance in Southport?

FEMA's National Risk Index rates coastal flooding risk in Brunswick County as Relatively High compared with other U.S. counties. Most home and renters policies do not cover flood damage. Flood cover is a separate policy, from the National Flood Insurance Program or a private insurer, and an NFIP policy usually starts 30 days after you buy it.

Do I need renters insurance in Southport?

19.8% of households in Southport rent, according to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey. A landlord's policy covers the building, not your belongings or your liability; renters insurance covers those.

Call two or three. Ask which companies they can quote for you, how they handle claims, and who you will deal with after you buy. An independent agency can compare several insurers in one call.
