As climate change increases the frequency and severity of natural disasters, homebuyers must prioritize disaster resilience when purchasing a home. Traditional home inspections often overlook this factor, leading to potential safety risks. The Federal Alliance for Safe Homes (FLASH) has created a guide to help homebuyers evaluate resilience against natural disasters. Given that natural disasters are now a ubiquitous risk—ranging from hurricanes to wildfires—every location has unique hazards that buyers should consider to ensure their home's safety and their own protection.
When you're buying a house, overlooking disaster resilience factors can be a huge mistake; climate change makes preparedness crucial for safety.
The FLASH homebuyer's guide to resilience highlights the importance of considering natural disaster risks, which have become more common due to climate change.
