Implications for Homeowners

Properties in special flooding zones require flood insurance, but many buyers are not informed until late in the purchasing process. FEMA’s National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) offers limited coverage, making additional private insurance more necessary. Amidst these challenges, Behrens Real Estate Group remains dedicated to ensuring a smooth and secure real estate transaction for our clients. We provide resources, guidance, and support to navigate the complexities of flood insurance and flood risk. From educational materials to expert advice, we're here to empower homeowners, buyers, and sellers to make informed decisions and safeguard their investments.
