Insuring a Brielle home for flood.
An NFIP policy covers the building up to $250,000 and contents up to $100,000. Larger homes need excess flood above it, or a private flood policy that can carry the full value and living expenses.
Elevation drives the price on both, so keep your elevation certificate.
