Harris County is having all area flood maps re-zoned. The new maps are due out May 10th. Some areas will change flood planes (some will be going from 500 year flood to 100 year flood). If you already carry flood insurance you will be grandfathered in to the lower rates. If your rate goes down you can call your insurance company and get them to adjust for the lower rate. I always tell my clients that flood insurance is very reasonable peace of mind and worth the investment. In the case of new maps...it may be worth signing up for flood insurance because if you are re-zoned and you have locked in the lower rate you will pay the grandfathered rate for as long as you own the home! Once the new maps come out you will be required to pay that amount.
