🌿 Illinois Flood Zone Disclosure
Required Disclosure for Properties in FEMA Flood Zones
ILLINOIS FLOOD ZONE DISCLOSURE: Illinois landlords whose properties are located in a FEMA-designated Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) must disclose this fact to prospective tenants. This allows tenants to make informed decisions about flood insurance and emergency preparedness.
🌊 Flood Zone Status
Tenants may check FEMA's Flood Map Service Center at msc.fema.gov to verify flood zone status. Standard renters insurance typically does NOT cover flood damage — separate flood insurance is available through the National Flood Insurance Program.
