Dealbreaker Flood Insurance ?

At what point does flood insurance become a dealbreaker for you? -$25 cash flow a door? $50? Looking at a deal where the insurance on the building and flood insurance are identical, doubling that cost of insurance per year. What is your take on this?

@Sherman Dunn If you are in a flood area you need flood insurance. You should not do a deal that is so iffy it can be tanked by buying insurance-any insurance. Look for a better deal that one is a non starter. IMO
