New FEMA Flood Zones affect Cape Cod properties

How will the new FEMA Flood Zone Maps affect Cape Cod real estate?

In June 2013 the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) published new maps of Flood Zones for areas around the USA. Many questions were catalyzed:

  • What relief, if any, will property owners have if re-mapped to a higher risk zone?
  • Does grandfathering end when I sell my property?!

The new FEMA maps have drastically affected many properties, their buildability, insurance costs, etc. Our report answers many questions about the new Flood Zones and the consequences to Cape Cod real estate.
