Reply to comment by Separate_Safe2779 in Buying a home in Warwick - extremely shady disclosure document by Separate_Safe2779

Keep in mind that the trend is for sea levels to rise, and storms seem to be more frequent. That will impact the cost of your flood insurance, and the resale value of your house over time. Flood zone was a hard no for us when we moved here, even though your realtor might tell you otherwise. Your realtor only makes money if you buy something, and since there's very little actually on the market they're not going to tell you that half of that is a bad idea due to flood zone concerns. Also, coming from Colorado pay attention to mold. A metric shit-ton of houses we saw had some type of mold issue. In Colorado that is much less of a thing. We had a separate mold inspection, which was worth the few hundred dollars they charged.

I’m curious where in CO you’re from. On the DIA flight path, so like Aurora? I know when I lived in Boulder we would get an occasional plane over us, but as a former Coloradan I’m curious. Can you bring me some Cosmo’s spicy ranch?

Hahaha! We’re in Thornton. Depending on wind direction, we actually get quite a bit of traffic.

Ahhhh yes I could see that. Warwick is like Thornton, lots of stores that will have everything you need. The airport is right in the city though, so it might be a bit closer than DIA planes on approach depending what part of Warwick you’re living.
