Solutions Value: Developable Footprint Doubled & Buyer Pool Increased

NFE Solutions: FES; LOMA

A commercial land investor in Buda, TX, sought to sell a parcel of land to developers. However, a substantial portion of the property was located within the special flood hazard area (SFHA), severely limiting the available developable land. This restriction deterred potential buyers and jeopardized the property's profitability.

Recognizing the need to maximize the land's potential, the property owner turned to National Flood Experts (NFE) for a comprehensive solution. NFE deployed its team of field experts to conduct a thorough Flood Expert Survey (FES) on-site. By combining their expertise with meticulous data collection, NFE confirmed the removal of 20.1 acres from the flood zone.

The removal of 20.1 acres from the flood zone proved to be a game-changer for the commercial land investor. It effectively DOUBLED the amount of developable acreage, expanding the property's possibilities and attracting a significantly larger buyer pool.

NFE's proactive approach and innovative solutions opened doors to a multitude of new investors, resulting in a more profitable sale for the property owner. By unlocking the land's full potential and mitigating the flood zone limitations, NFE's expertise elevated the property's market value and ensured a lucrative investment opportunity.

This successful project highlights the significance of proactive measures in optimizing the potential of flood-zone properties. With National Flood Experts on your team, you can confidently transform limitations into opportunities, maximize profitability, and unlock the true value of your land investments.
