If that value is outdated or understated, a home can reach the 50% threshold much faster on paper.
That’s why Building Value Reassessment matters.

February isn’t quiet.
Remember historic snowpacks & rapid warm-ups can create events that quickly overwhelm rivers and aging infrastructure.
Check local flood maps. Know your elevation. Have a plan.

FEMA has paused its flagship BRIC program, once distributing over 5 B to strengthen disaster resilience.
The shift continues as FEMA grapples with a 2.5B deficit in its disaster fund, after 90+ major disasters in 2024 alone.
Resilience funding may change, but the need hasn't.
