Flood zone information in Connect

If you are incorporating a map during your search, click the layers icon   in the upper left of the map and select Flood Plain:

You can also see flood layer information on individual listings.

When viewing a listing in the Full Detail report, click the locate on map icon   at the top center (right next to the address) to display the property on a map:

A map will open to the left of the listing and the property will appear in the center of the map.

The locate on map icon is available on other Connect reports (List View, Thumbnail, Gallery, etc.) and functions the same on all of them.  Regardless of the report you are viewing, you can plot the property on a map and then apply the Flood Plain layer so you can quickly determine if the property might be susceptible to flooding issues.
