From our friends at the MA Dept. of Conservation & Recreation:

Greetings! We wanted to share some updated information on flood insurance that may be of interest to your realtors and their clients. Please reach out if you have further questions or if you’d like to discuss further.

• FEMA has a new instant quote tool for flood insurance. The tool can help give an idea of the cost for a flood insurance policy and connect a potential policy holder to an agent/agency for purchase.
• Monthly installment payment plans are now available for flood insurance policies.
• General information on flood insurance can be found on https://www.floodsmart.gov/.

Our office is always available to answer any questions regarding flood insurance or flood risks. Our contact information is available here.

Best,

The Flood Hazard Management Program Team
