If your renewal just landed
The federal flood premium can rise at most 18% a year until it reaches the full risk-based rate. If yours jumped more than that, something else changed: coverage amount, a mapping change, a lapsed policy being re-rated, or a discount that fell off. Ask which.
The 18% cap is not a ceiling on the destination. The full-risk price is already set for your address; the cap only spreads the climb. Every 2025 number above is still on the way up.
Second homes are most of this market. 25% of single-family flood policies in Monmouth County are not primary residences. That share is why the homeowners-insurance data (below) understates what the shore actually pays: it counts owner-occupied homes only.
Homeowners insurance, the part regulators can see
Average premium for owner-occupied homes with regular (admitted) carriers, from the federal ZIP-level release. Across these towns the average was $4,186 in 2018 and $4,325 in 2022. Treasury's own note on this file: it excludes FAIR Plan and surplus-lines policies, and single ZIP codes are statistically thin, so read town rows as direction, not precision. Where the average fell in the most expensive towns, that is not good news. It almost always means the costliest homes were dropped or pushed to carriers this data cannot see. The last column is what insurers paid out in claims per dollar of premium in 2022.
| Town | 2018 | 2022 | Change | Not renewed | Paid out |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring Lake | $4,186 | $4,325 | +3% | 0.92% | 20¢ |
