... and live up hill..
These TV shows on HGTV and “Beachside Bargain Hunt” never seem to mention what can happen to these homes when the “once in 30 years storm” comes through. This National Flood Insurance that we all subsidize needs to end. I am tired of rebuilding somebodies multimillion dollar beach house once every 20-30 years.
If you choose to buy a house near the ocean or in the flood plain of some river you need to suffer the consequences of your bad decision. I still do not know why we rebuilt houses in the 9th ward of New Orleans. The government should have condemned the whole area and turned it into a city park. Why let someone rebuild in an area that is 6-8 feet BELOW sea level.
