Comprehensive Flood Insurance for Whitemarsh Island
It provides beautiful marsh views and proximity to Savannah, but it also comes with the risk of flooding. Whether from coastal storms, rising sea levels, or tidal creeks, flood risks are a reality for homeowners here. That’s why flood insurance is essential for protecting your home and belongings. As a locally based company with deep ties to Georgia, we understand these risks better than anyone—and we’re here to help you navigate flood insurance with confidence.
Navigating Flood Insurance in Coastal Georgia
Years ago, when we bought our first home in Savannah, we were told that we were in a high-risk flood zone, and that our flood insurance premiums would be several thousand dollars a year. This seemed excessive for our location, so we took a closer look at FEMA’s flood maps and consulted local experts. After a detailed review, we discovered that our home had been incorrectly classified. We were actually in a lower-risk Flood Zone X, which meant we could save thousands on our insurance premiums.
We went through the process of challenging our flood zone classification, filing the necessary paperwork, and working with FEMA to reclassify our property. The result? Our premiums dropped significantly, and our property value increased because of the more favorable flood risk. This personal experience has shaped our commitment to helping homeowners in the Whitemarsh Island area avoid costly mistakes and get the right insurance coverage for their homes.

HOW WE HELP YOU NAVIGATE FLOOD INSURANCE
If you’ve been placed in a high-risk zone like Flood Zone AE, it’s possible your home may be misclassified. This can lead to unnecessarily high insurance premiums. We can help you:
Review Your Flood Zone:
We’ll check FEMA’s maps and work with local surveyors to assess your property’s true flood risk.
Obtain an Elevation Certificate:
If your home sits higher than FEMA’s Base Flood Elevation (BFE), you may be eligible for lower premiums.
Submit a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA):
If your home’s elevation is above the base flood level, we can help you file a LOMA to reclassify your property and potentially reduce your premiums.
