Make Informed Decisions When  Buying in Toronto

Know if you’re about to buy a home in a floodplain

 

Flooding will become more common as storm events become more frequent and severe due to climate change. Floodplains are particularly at risk of increased flooding events. While back-flow protection valves and sump pumps can help protect a home from flood damage, it’s still important to understand the flooding risk before you buy a property. Our property reports will show you if the property you’re considering is inside a floodplain so you can do your due diligence.
