Waterfront and inland lots are not interchangeable
For properties near the South Shore, FEMA's flood map can be a helpful address-specific reference, but it does not establish a site's elevation or soil. Discuss thresholds, runoff and finished grades using actual measurements. Inland parcels have their own drainage patterns, too. A survey, plans and qualified design advice may be needed where structural or flood-related decisions depend on precise information.
