Flood Insurance in Oklahoma
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 Oklahoma
Oklahoma has the highest hail claim frequency in the country and percentage wind/hail deductibles are effectively universal — a 1% or 2% deductible on a $300,000 dwelling is a real number a client should see before binding. Induced seismicity has made earthquake a live and separately written exposure across the central counties, and it is excluded from every standard homeowners form.
