Thanks, Randy. The policies I'm looking at are not grandfathered yet. I think that will be the next step taken later this year after the two years for the preferred risk extension runs out. So the assumption was that these policies would have to show the rating zone and the actual correct current zone. But they do not.
I did find a draft memo when searching online that suggested to agents that they mark grandfathered to cut down on lender confusion! Perhaps it's timing, but the ones I'm looking at seem to be straightforward preferred risk policies - without the reference to the current flood zone. The two year extension will run out in October. We didn't know whether we had to push for the correct technical completion of the documentatioin or not...or if that was even possible.
Also found a disputed zone between us and the insurance agent that was not resolved. Wow - so we have a policy written on a low risk zone (per the agent's determination) that we say is in a high risk zone. And the map has an edge of the building right on the line. Can only FEMA resolve when the agent has not cooperated - after the fact? (I know the premium would be a substantial increase for the borrower.) I'll do the research on the process options. But again, I'm asking what if a fix is possible now that we're into this by a couple of years.
