Honestly, this information should be a legally mandated disclosure in any MLS listing or advert for the home. “Inside a FEMA flood zone”, “Located within a known storm surge zone”, “Dwelling located below local water levels”, etc, are all critically important pieces of info for evaluating property valuation that don’t ever have to be disclosed to buyers in most places. Zillow and Redfin integrating these risk profiles and maps into listing data helped homebuyers make better decisions regarding property valuations, and I’m disappointed they removed them.
