It hasn't affected property values yet because planning department hasn't applied the zones yet (probably not until the formal adoption of the study). When clients come to us one of the first things I do is check the FUTURE flood zoning of their property, ever since we had some clients really get jacked up when county tried to enforce these future codes. County has come off it for now, but it will be back. In my mind, any ethical realtor would be doing the same (checking properties for future flood zone). Otherwise buyers can get caught sideways in building requirements or stupid high insurance policies. Seems to me like some major land grabs/liquidations would be going on since there is no requirement for disclosure of future zones.
