The LOMA survey can make it possible to add-on to your building or even build your dream home.

LOMA Survey

LOMA Surveys

A LOMA (Letter of Map Amendment) is a survey that removes the portion of the property that is above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) from the Flood Hazard Area. FEMA uses LOMA Surveys to revise and update their maps.

Our LOMA Survey Will Benefit You By:

  • Removing any portion of your property that is above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) from the Flood Zone as designated by FEMA
  • May be recorded and transferred with deed of property
    • May increase perceived value of property to potential buyers
  • Maximizes the potential relief from flood insurance premiums/costs
  • You are not restricted by FEMA from making improvements in the portion released from the Flood Zone

eLOMA

e-LOMA

An e-LOMA (Electronic LOMA) is a filing of information to FEMA for the purpose of removing the residence from the flood insurance requirement. Unlike the full LOMA, this does not remove any auxiliary structures such as detached garages, sheds, etc. and is not transferred with the deed.

Our e-LOMA Survey Will Benefit You By:

  • Providing a cost effective way to eliminate the flood insurance requirement
  • Quick turn around for time sensitive situations
  • Effective way to eliminate flood insurance requirement if property is within the Flood Zone but house is located above the Flood Zone

Flood Elevation Certificate

A Flood Elevation Certificate is a filing of information to the insurance company, very similar to the e-LOMA but does not remove the insurance requirement, it only helps the flood insurance company set the rate. This is often used when the structure is located within the Flood Zone but is towards the top of the zone.

Our Flood Elevation Certificate Will Benefit You By:

  • Providing a cost effective way to reduce your flood insurance
  • Quick turn around for time sensitive situations
  • Provides an option to help reduce the insurance costs if the structure is still located within the Flood Zone
