Just because a property has never flooded doesn't mean it's not in a floodplain!
Floodplain designations can affect:
✅ Where you can build your home
✅ Foundation and elevation requirements
✅ Flood insurance costs
✅ Development plans for your property
Before purchasing farm and ranch land, check FEMA's flood maps and talk with your local floodplain administrator.
A beautiful 30-acre property doesn't necessarily mean you have 30 acres of buildable land!
