The last few weeks have seen the State of Rhode Island and much of southeastern Connecticut devastated by flooding. The damage to infrastructure, businesses, and homes has been unprecendented.
Here is some helpful information for Southern RI business owners:
The RI Dept of Labor & Training and the RI-EDC will present emergency response sessions to provide information on Disaster Unemployment Insurance Procedures and options for financial assistance for impacted business owners.

For real estate practitioners and FHA buyers:
FHA has ordered all properties that are being considered for FHA financing to be re-inspected by appraisers if the appraisal was done before the flooding. They want to make sure that the property suffered no flooding or water damage and is substantially in the same condition.
For real estate practitioners and buyers of property in flood zones:
When Congress adjourned for Easter break, they failed to renew the National Flood Insurance Program so check with your insurance provider to be sure that you have flood insurance in place...or plan to close after Congress is back in session and has dealt with this oversight.
