Flood Insurance in Oregon
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 Oregon
Oregon requires PIP and uninsured motorist coverage on every auto policy. The 2020 Labor Day fires reshaped property appetite across the Cascade foothills and the wildland-urban interface, and Cascadia subduction zone earthquake exposure is excluded from homeowners policies and written separately.
