There’s a lot of danger out there in the natural realm. It seems we can hardly go a week without hearing about hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, mudslides, volcanoes, floods, sinkholes. There’s even talk of major solar flares. Is any place safe?
There’s a website called Trulia that can help. It’s primarily a real estate website. However, natural disaster risks have can have a huge impact on the home’s investment, not to mention your family’s safety. Trulia has maps to help you look at potentially and historically disaster areas before you buy. These maps show where the high risks of wildfire and earthquakes are, and that’s just a start. These maps use historic and government data to let home buyers know where the greatest risks are.
Supposed you work hard all your life for decades and do the right thing. After years of saving up, you find your dream home to spend your golden years, whether it’s in southern California or the Florida coast. You log on Trulia only to find out your neighborhood got rocked by an earthquake or nearly washed away by a hurricane or flood in recent years. Wouldn’t you think twice before you invested in that dream home? That’s the great thing about Turlia. But keep in mind you can only get this update on their local based site.?Can we hope other real estate websites, or other sites follow suit?
