NEWS FOR YOU
Big Announcement!
It is with great excitement that the Tucson Association of REALTORS® and the MLS of Southern Arizona announce the addition of Judy Lowe, Commissioner of the Arizona Department of Real Estate (ADRE), as Vice President of Operations. Lowe brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the position as she has a developed operational excellence in her current role leading the State Agency since 2009. Read more here.
The Federal Emergency Management Association (FEMA) has determined that areas within Southern Arizona, especially parts of Cochise County, Santa Cruz County and Pima County, particularly areas affecting the Town of Marana, may be added to floodplain designations which are associated with a higher risk of flooding. Residents in those areas may be required to purchase flood insurance for their homes and businesses. Floodplain maps and flood insurance information may be viewed online. See www.fema.gov,
www.floodsmart.gov. The municipality in which the property is located may additionally have its own floodplain designations and building restrictions. Check with the City of Tucson, Oro Valley, Green Valley, Sahuarita, Marana, and/or click here for additional information.
In addition, check out Floodplain Resources for Real Estate Professionals at click here .
Also please note, Zone X does not automatically mean that flood insurance will not be needed. Per Pima.gov “ZONE X includes areas where the flood hazard has not been mapped by FEMA but may have been mapped by a local jurisdiction; therefore ZONE X does not necessarily mean there are
no flood hazards.”
