Repairing your home after Hurricanes Helene and Milton?

Before starting any repairs on your damaged property, the Charlotte County Community Development urges homeowners to familiarize themselves with FEMA’s 50% Rule, which will help you know how to proceed with repairs and stay within local and federal guidelines.

Steps include getting a detailed estimate of the repair cost, knowing your home’s current market value and determining whether the cost to repair is less than 50% of your home’s market value.

For more information, visit tinyurl.com/CCCD-50Rule or call the Community Development Department at 941-743-1201 to get help that applies to you.
