On average, homeowners can expect to pay $600 for a flood elevation certificate, ing to data collected by HomeAdvisor.
The national average cost for an elevation certificate is about $600 and the range is about $169 to $2,000 or more. There are a lot of reasons elevation certificate costs vary, including: occupancy type, structure type, demand, location, timing, data, and quality.
The current form should be used whenever a new Elevation Certificate is being completed for a structure. A complete and correct Elevation Certificate (EC) form already completed for a building does not expire unless there is a physical change to the building that invalidates information that was previously certified.
Floods can happen anywhere just one inch of floodwater can cause up to $25,000 in damage while the typical Individual Assistance grant awarded by FEMA is between $3,000-$6,000. Most homeowners insurance does not cover flood damage.
How do I get an elevation certificate? Start by contacting your local floodplain manager. They often work for your citys or countys building, permitting, engineering or land use department. Ask them if there is an elevation certificate on file for your property.
