Before you make an offer
Ask for windstorm certificates on the roof, windows and any additions; San Patricio and Aransas are coastal windstorm counties. Check the flood zone and ask for an elevation certificate, especially near the bays and canals. On canal and waterfront homes, have the dock, boat lift and shoreline structures inspected, and ask about canal depth at low water. In Rockport, ask for permits and repair records on homes rebuilt after Hurricane Harvey. If you plan to rent the home out, check the city's short-term rental rules and any HOA rules first. Outside city limits, confirm whether the home is on sewer or septic.
Windstorm insurance and flood zones vary by property; Marci can point you to the right specialist. This isn't insurance or legal advice.

Good to know
Winter and spring northers can push water out of the shallow bays and canals for days, dropping levels well below normal. Waterfront buyers should ask about canal depth at low water before counting on year-round boat access.
