Some floods can only be avoided with regular home inspections, like ones that are caused by Plumbing wearing out, or a roof leak. Sometimes even regular checks aren't going to find problems, and all you can do is react as quickly as possible and repair the problems.
However, with most floods that are caused by weather and natural disaster, you can check the flood plain maps even before you buy a home to ensure you are buying in an area that is unlikely to flood. Another thing that you can do is set up flood barriers on your property. This can be expensive, but so is water damage.
If you know a flood is coming, another thing you should do, just to be safe, is evacuate your family. It might not always be necessary, but you don't want to play the odds where your loved ones are concerned.
