Close More Deals with Fast, Reliable Flood Insurance

I Almost Lost My Dream Home—Because of Bad Flood Insurance Information.”

Ten years ago, I was about to close on my home when I got the news:
My flood insurance premium would be $3,000 per year.

That number seemed too high, and it made me question whether I could afford the home. But something didn’t add up. I knew flood insurance, and I knew that number wasn’t right.

• The property was incorrectly placed in a high-risk flood zone due to outdated mapping.
• The insurance company didn’t verify accurate flood data and assigned a generic rate.
• If I hadn’t questioned it, I would have been stuck paying ten times more than necessary—or worse, lost the home altogether.

With my master’s degree in flood mitigation and 15 years of insurance experience, I knew how to fix it.
I fought back.
I got the premium corrected to just $300 per year instead of $3,000.
And I saved my deal from falling apart.

That day, I realized something:
If this could happen to me—someone with flood insurance expertise—how many others were losing homes, paying too much, or getting bad information?

That’s why I started The Flood Insurance Guru.

Today, we help loan officers, homebuyers, and property owners avoid these same mistakes—so they never have to lose a deal because of flood insurance confusion.
