What waterfront ownership really costs

Waterfront homes carry costs inland homes do not: flood insurance where the parcel sits in a FEMA special flood hazard area, higher windstorm premiums closer to open water, and upkeep for seawalls, docks and lifts. Before you offer, pull the FEMA flood zone for the specific parcel, ask for the seawall’s age and any inspection reports, and get an insurance quote in hand, not an estimate. Our flood insurance calculator and wind mitigation savings calculator show what the parcel will actually cost to insure.

Questions to ask about any waterfront listing

Is the water frontage deeded or association-owned? Is there a fixed bridge between the dock and open water, and what is the clearance? What did the seller pay for flood and wind coverage last year, and with which carriers? Has the seawall or dock been permitted and inspected? What is the finished-floor elevation? A local agent who works waterfront deals will know which canals hold depth at low tide and which carriers are writing in the area.

Is a waterfront home always in a flood zone?
