1 inch? Not worried. Do your homework OP but 1 inch doesn't worry me.
Part of my message got cut off. Meant to say "this is what Flood Factor data says"
If you look at the actual flood risk map on floodfactor.com, even the worst case scenario (the 0.2% risk) doesn't get water -- or even that close to -- to the house.

I have no idea what a 10/10 flood factor even means here.
(If you click on the map view and select flood factor you'll see the high risk of flood is all on the northern part of the parcel away from the house - obviously I'd look into it more closely but it appears a 10/10 rating tells us nothing about the chances of the house itself being flooded)
My question exactly. If it means that part of this property - the unbuilt land near the creek - is guaranteed to flood I wouldn't be bothered. But if it means the basement floods, then absolutely not.

Flood Factor can be misleading with houses on large lots. Need to look at the actual FEMA map.

Have you looked at it on an actual FEMA flood map? It matters what zone the house itself is in (as opposed to the surrounding land), as well as the elevation of the living space.

Looks like it’s set on higher ground. I’d give it consideration. We avoided houses that were on the down hill.

What is the flood factor based on? It looks like the lower part of the lot near the stream floods regularly, but the house is up a big hill from the stream. Is it clear that the house has ever flooded?

It's on a 7.7 acre lot - including land on both sides of a creek. Does the 10/10 flood factor mean the house gets wet? or the creek on the property just gets higher when it rains?
I have no idea what a 10/10 flood factor even means here.

Yes, because it looks to be at the top of a hill and it does not have an underground basement.

But what is the likelihood of this river flooding regularly though? Seems low.

Nope, but a lot of people don't think about stuff like this

I know, right? So why is it a “hot home?”
