Email from Denise Boehning Introducing CoastalWide's Flood Insurance Guidebook!     Welcome from CoastalWide LLC CoastalWide Flood Consulting June 2026 Greetings! I’m Denise Boehning, President of Coa

After years of thinking about writing it, it's done.
I just published The First-Time Buyer's Guide to Flood Insurance — a 64-page plain-English guide for anyone buying their first home, especially in or near a flood-prone area.
I wrote it because I watch the same pattern play out every week: a buyer falls in love with a house, the lender doesn't require flood insurance, they skip the policy, and three years later there's a storm and a phone call I wish we'd had three years earlier.
This is that earlier conversation. In writing.
What's inside:
🏠 How FEMA flood zones actually work (and why "X zone" doesn't mean "no risk")
🏠 What your homeowners insurance does NOT cover (spoiler: flood damage)
🏠 NFIP vs. private flood insurance — how to compare quotes
🏠 The 5 questions to ask before you make an offer
🏠 What to do in the first 72 hours after a flood
Plus a Buyer's Due-Diligence Checklist, a Realtor disclosure script, an Elevation Certificate quick-read guide, and a glossary of every term you'll encounter at closing.
64 pages. $49. Instant download.
If you know a first-time buyer or a Realtor who could use this, I'd be grateful if you shared it. Link in the comments
