wrong!!!! If you are closing on a new house you can get flood insurance effective immediately. Insurance agent for over 20 years and have done this hundreds of times.

Sandra,
As every one says - always true. You would not even have noticed had Dolly not been in the Gulf.
Unless you purchased in the Flood zone it should not be a problem, the big ones are later in the season.

Sandra that is true across the nation. That is done so everyone doesn't try and buy flood insurance two days before a hurricane hits.
