Content Coverage Required for Flood Insurance

Answered by:

Question:

Is there a best practice of what documentation to use for determining the amount of content coverage required for flood insurance?

Answer:

I would only require contents coverage if I'm taking contents as collateral. If I'm taking contents as collateral, I would presume that some type of valuation of the contents has been performed as part of the underwriting and that's the amount of contents coverage I'd require.
