Home Owners Insurance Claims Woman says, "No, flood insurance doesn't cover you being underwater and owing more on your mortgage than your house is worth."
Or, bald, if the water is determined to have come into your house not through a flood by because the storm blew the water in–as some in Louisiana were dismayed to find out a few years back. Soory–you have flood insurance, not storm insurance…
Yes–insurers don’t make money paying out claims, and banks don’t make money by refinancing bad mortgages. Of course, they don’t make money by servicing bad mortgages or repossessing houses either, but they think they do. And by taking government bail-outs and delaying the refinancing they promised (and the bail-out was intended to allow).

and you need to read the fine print, it may not actually cover you even if you are literally under water and you live too close to a flood plain

your bank will get a bail out, but not you. grab a bucket and a sump pump and try to keep your head above water.
