NFE Solutions: FES; LOMA
A client purchasing a multifamily property in Hampton, VA, sought to reduce expenses associated with flood insurance premiums and avoid potential excess requirements from their lender. To explore potential solutions, the client reached out to National Flood Experts (NFE).
NFE's team immediately began working on the client's request. They conducted a comprehensive analysis of the property and its surroundings, paying close attention to topography, elevation, and existing flood zone information. Through their initial desktop engineering review, NFE identified several buildings that qualified for removal from the flood zone. Additionally, the review indicated a high likelihood that more buildings could qualify after collecting on-site data by performing a Flood Expert Survey (FES).
Prior to closing on the property, NFE's solutions played a crucial role in facilitating the removal of lender mandates for many of the buildings. Furthermore, even more buildings qualified for removal from the flood zone post-closing, resulting in a significant improvement to the Net Operating Income (NOI) by over $11,000. Additionally, the property value increased by an estimated $185,000.
Thanks to NFE's expertise and commitment to providing quality service, the client achieved their financial goals and experienced tangible benefits. The reduced flood insurance premiums and increased property value placed the client's assets in a better financial position.
