First off $1000 per month is on the low side but shop around. Second I’d assume Deluna has updated flood maps as it’s older than where I am in Lake Denham. That being said when we bought our house was in a flood zone and we were told the maps should be updated in a few months. We were t actually in a flood zone because the developer raised the land elevation. But without updated FEMA maps we still needed flood insurance. Over a year later the maps were still not updated. But then I found out from the bank (citizens first) that I could apply to have my single home updated using something called a LOMA or LOMC. It was a pain in the ass. The bank did provide some of the documents I needed. Others I had to find online. But after 90 days I got approval and no longer in a flood zone. No idea if the maps have been updated yet. The annoying thing is Citizens could have told me this the first year and saved me a grand for the second year.
