Simply complete your search, contact us with the properties that you would like to see, and we will make all of the necessary arrangements to schedule personal inspections at times that are convenient for you.
Flood Insurance Flood insurance is a national program that provides protection against water damage resulting from water outside the home. The typical homeowner’s policy will provide coverage for water damage that might result from, for example, a broken water pipe within the home. However, the typical homeowner’s policy will not provide any coverage from water damage resulting from flooding from outside the home. If you live on the water and apply for a mortgage loan, mortgage lenders will typically require flood insurance. In many cases, lenders will require flood insurance even if your property is within certain distance from the water. To learn more about flood insurance and flood insurance rates, contact your insurance broker. Flood insurance is a national program. To determine whether your property is in a flood zone visit http://www.nassaunyfloodmap.com/.
For information and price quotes regarding both flood and homeowner's insurance please visit www.americanagency.com. Bulkheading If you live on the water and do not have a beach, you will probably need to erect and/or maintain a bulkhead. A bulkhead is a physical structure that retards erosion of land that is adjacent to water and seeks to maintain the integrity of the land. It may be made out of wood, plastic or concrete. To learn more about bulkheads, visit http://www.nugentmarineconstruction.com/. Also a very informative DVD about bulkheads, and how they are constructed, is available upon request from our office.
