Discover how National Flood Experts (NFE) assisted an industrial storage facility in Bonita Springs, FL, to overcome increased flood insurance premiums caused by updated FEMA maps. Through their expertise and a thorough Flood Expert Survey (FES), NFE reduced the client's costs and enhanced property value.

Challenge: Due to updated FEMA maps, an industrial storage facility faced skyrocketing flood insurance premiums after being newly mapped into a high-risk flood zone. The client, referred by a previous NFE Client, sought NFE's assistance to find an affordable solution.

Solution: To gather the most current, building-specific data, NFE conducted a comprehensive Flood Expert Survey (FES) to evaluate the property and identify all potential cost-saving solutions. The in-house engineering review of the FES data determined that two of the three buildings qualified for a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA), removing them from the high-risk flood zone.

By securing the LOMA designation, the client achieved significant outcomes:

Cost Savings: The client's annual flood insurance premiums were reduced by an impressive $10,000.

Property Value Increase: With the reassessment and removal from the high-risk flood zone, the property value increased by $167,000 (assuming a 6% CAP rate), improving the overall worth of the industrial storage facility.

Conclusion: NFE's project for this Client industrial storage facility demonstrates its commitment to delivering effective cost-saving solutions across all real estate verticals. By conducting a thorough FES and securing a LOMA for two buildings, NFE helped the client reduce costs and enhance property value.
