WEBINAR DETAILS

A Standard Flood Hazard Determination Form (SFHDF) appears simple, but it is essential that lending staff has a strong understanding of its contents because it begins the process for meeting the Flood Disaster Protection Act requirements. This understanding includes recognizing when to obtain the initial determination, appropriately acting upon the information received, and providing the proper notice. 

In addition, this session will explore FEMA’s map tool and explain how to request a flood map change. It will also review materials that can be requested from your determination company to aid in identifying structure location and your institution’s loans located in a special flood hazard area.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This informative session is designed for real estate lenders, loan processors, compliance staff, and audit personnel.
