    Yes, but it is a cost they weren't expecting. This literally came up they day before exchange of contracts.

    Well the answer to your initial question seems to be that the property is mortgageable but that buyers need to be aware of the insurance costs. I certainly would not consider not insuring a property against flood damage in an area at risk of flooding, irrespective of any lender requirements.
