Have Flood Insurance Guidelines Changed for Your Area?

Follow me on:

According to www.wboc.com in Chrisfield, MD "More people may have to buy flood insurance for the first time under new floodplains drawn by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. FEMA will not mail individual notices; it advises people to go to their planning agencies to compare old and new maps."

FEMA regularly updates their floodplains so to make sure you are covered adequately, check regularly within your local area to see if your property has been put into a new floodplain.
