What is required if a property is in a FEMA designated flood zone?

  1. Immediate evacuation of the property

  2. Disclosure and the need for the buyer to purchase flood insurance

  3. A reduction in the listing price

  4. A federal inspection prior to sale

The correct answer is: Disclosure and the need for the buyer to purchase flood insurance

FEMA designated flood zones indicate that the area is at a high risk for floods. As a property owner, you are required to disclose this information to potential buyers, as it may affect the property's value and safety. Therefore, in this situation, the correct answer is B - the need for the buyer to purchase flood insurance. The other options are incorrect because they are either not necessary (A, C) or not related to flood protection (D).
