Where could I find the best source for flood zone information? My basement flooded a few times this year. They were minor, but a lot of work to dry out everything.

I disagree … it can’t be the buyer’s fault for believing the government. The insurance company has to believe the government when charging rates, so the buyer kind of does too. This is ludicrous. On the other hand, if you didn’t have flood insurance before because you thought you were safe, you’re not necessarily unsafe now – if you really honestly didn’t need it before, you really honestly don’t need it now. The land hasn’t changed, just the government maps.

Hello. Unfortunately, these problems recur year after year because the government’s flood zones can be decades old and wrong but the government’s policy is that it is the buyer’s fault for believing the government.

Best of luck.
