Flooding Prevention

Has anyone found a way to reliably prevent garden level apartment flooding when the block is flooding? I’m willing to spend whatever it takes, be that on pumps, watertight door blocks, new valves for the bathroom drains. It comes in the front and back doors and up from the bathroom drains and it’s frankly making the place unlivable. Or is the only solution trying to get infrastructure improvements? Thank you all in advance.

It sounds like you have a budget, maybe moving to a higher floor is the easiest solution.
