Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM)
 
Knowing whether a property is located within a flood zone and whether an elevation certificate is available for the property are important factors in any real estate transaction. Besides being important from a disclosure perspective, a flood zone determination will help determine if purchasing flood insurance is mandatory for the property in question. With an elevation certificate, properties located in flood zones can receive lower flood insurance rates.

For property within the City limits, Scottsdale offers free flood zone determinations.

This application has been designed to provide on-line (Internet) access to flood zone information. This information is not a legal substitute for the flood plain maps that are provided by FEMA. We suggest that you refer to the FEMA flood plain maps if your property appears to be near any flood insurance required areas. Please call the Records Department at the City of Scottsdale (phone number listed below) for assistance.

NOTE: If your property is within a designated flood zone, you will be required to obtain a copy of the elevation certificate. Elevation certificates are NOT downloadable thru this web site, and must be received from the City of Scottsdale One Stop Shop.

This information can also be obtained thru Scottsdale's One Stop Shop. To receive this service, just call, fax, write, or drop by the Records Department in the One Stop Shop with an address or legal description of the property. A Records representative will assist you in gathering all of the information that is necessary to complete your flood zone determination.  Copies of elevation certificates, which are available for most construction completed within the last ten years, can also be accessed through the Records Department.
