Flood Insurance Limits

Hi,

I am looking to put in a offer for a house that has a creek flowing through the property - the dwelling itself is setback quite a bit away from it and completely out of the flood zone and Wetlands buffer around the creek. But because of the brook on the land, it means that property comes under Zone A flood zone, hence likely requiring flood insurance by lender.

So I am trying to budget for the flood insurance before putting in offer. How much limit mortgage lender typically require? Upto the limit of the mortgage Or Amount to rebuild the house or another amount?

One of the Flood insurance agent I spoke with said that Flood isurnace with 250k limit should be enough. 250k will be substantially lower than either mortgage amount or the amount required to rebuild.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
