Should You Buy a Home in a Flood Zone? What You Need to Know
Buying a home in a flood zone can be tempting, but it comes with major risks. Flood classifications, home elevation, and ever-changing insurance costs all play a role in your investment. Homes below Base Flood Elevation (BFE) can mean skyrocketing insurance premiums and potential resale challenges. Before making a decision, understand FEMA flood maps, coverage limits, and the long-term financial impact to avoid costly surprises.
