New Orleans Flood Insurance

[Charlotte B.]

How do you estimate the rate of flood insurance for homes in New Orleans?  I'm looking for ballpark numbers as I vet investment properties.  It sounds like it's related to the flood class, but I'm not sure where to find that information.

I would say talk to an insurance agent...they should at least have an idea...you can look up the flood zone classification for the parish, then get with an agent that can get you flood insurance. They should have close guess of what it will be.
