[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC itself is a swamp prone to flooding so selling beach house and moving to DC[b] if we really had global warming[/b] makes no sense.

Reality is it moved an inch or two a year. You and your kids long dead before anything happens [/quote]

Oh dear.

This whole post is nuts, but it all stems form the bolded.  [/quote]

Exactly, global warming is already happening. Coastal areas by the virtue of being at sea level will be significantly more prone to flooding. You cannot avoid damaging floods by moving an inch or two. And you will not be able to get flood insurance so you will have to pay for the flood damage every time it happens. [/quote]

Eventually all beach front property will have to be rebuilt, I am surprised how many old wooden homes with zero flood proofing still exist in low laying beach areas.  As if we never built homes on stilts or concrete buildings that are immune to hurricane winds.  ITA, that at some point over the years any beach house is at risk of major damage that would be a money pit to fix or build new.  But plenty of rich people will probably buy the land off your hands, I don't see land going down in value at beach front. [/quote]
