Flood Insurance in Michigan
Flood is excluded from every standard homeowners policy. Coverage comes from the NFIP or a private flood carrier, and most policies carry a waiting period.
What is different in Michigan
Michigan's 2019 no-fault reform replaced a single unlimited PIP requirement with a menu of medical limits, and the choice a client made at reform is frequently still in force and frequently not understood. Reviewing the PIP election — and documenting the recommendation — is the single most consequential thing an agent does on a Michigan auto policy.
