How do I pull up the flood maps?

I'm looking at a property to see if the area flooded. I know there's a feature where you can see the flood map on top of an area.

Cassandra! HAR now has this as a tab in matrix for agents to use, but the general public can also utilize FEMA interactive flood maps! I like to run a google search by "[county name] FEMA flood map" and then hit the link that pops up and go search the address! Feel free to reach out to me directly for further information!  Email  346-412-6603

There are several ways to find flood maps for a specific area. Here are a few options: Visit the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) website to view flood maps for the United States. You can search for flood maps by address or by clicking on a specific location on a map. Contact your local government office or floodplain manager. They may have flood maps available for your area. Check with your insurance company or a local insurance agent. They may have access to flood maps or be able to provide you with information about flood risk in your area. Some states and local governments have their own websites that provide flood maps and information. You can try searching online for flood maps specific to your state or local area. Keep in mind that flood maps are often based on historical data and may not take into account new developments or changes to the landscape that could affect flood risk. It is always a good idea to be prepared for the possibility of flooding, even if you are not in a high-risk area.

I will first go to the MLS listing page and click on the flood map tab. You can also go to the county appraisal district website, click interactive maps, and choose the FEMA flood map filter. The FEMA website will have all of the information as well!

There are several ways. 1. You can go directly to the FEMA website https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home 2. login to your Matrix and type the address of the property then click on the flood map tab at the top of the listing 3. If you are already logged into your matrix, on your dashboard under the links tab, you will find a link to FEMA website.

https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home Or on each Agent report at the top, there is a tab that says Flood Map. This will tell you flood zones but a sellers disclosure from buyer tells you if it's flooded during that ownership. Hope this helps.

Super easy Log in to Matrix and pull up an address. Any address will work. Then, you can click the link “Flood Maps” and scroll around to the location you are interested in. You may have to zoom in or out for the zones to become viewable.

Other than going into the FEMA site, you can also go into Matrix to type in the address, then at the top of the tool bars click on FLOOD MAP. That will also show you the areas.
