Flood insurance is only necessary if you live in an area prone to flooding. Homeowners living in a flood plain will be required to show proof of flood insurance in order to be approved for a mortgage. Others may choose to carry flood insurance if they have a finished basement or store expensive items on the bottom level of their homes.
