Cost increases are beyond the normal adjustments for inflation. Storms are causing more widespread damages for a complicated combination of reasons.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thoughtspot.com\/thoughtspot-blog\/are-hurricanes-getting-worse-story-told-7-charts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Data sets<\/a> from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) suggest that warmer oceans fuel stronger hurricanes. Rising sea levels also contribute to more catastrophic flooding. Poor graywater management and diminishing green spaces broaden flood zones and prolong the time it takes for floodwaters to recede.<\/p>\n<p>What might this mean for you? Properties outside of recognized flood zones face greater risks than they did 20 years ago. Properties that were not impacted by hurricane winds before may now need additional protections. Fortunately, it\u2019s not too late to minimize risks to your properties and their occupants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advanced Preparation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Take time to review your insurance information. Ensure that your property is up to date on insurance coverage that includes flood protection. This will cover your property whether it is in the direct path of the hurricane or areas that experience flooding related to a far-off storm.<\/p>\n<p>Category 1 and 2 hurricanes sustain winds of 74-110 mph, per the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Be sure that your plan for storm damage includes winds of at least 74 mph for the most complete coverage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hurricane Preparation to Reduce Risks to Mixed Portfolios<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Preparation is key to reducing damage to property. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/news\/hurricane-season\/11605.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hurricane preparation tips for property managers<\/a> can minimize property damage due to hurricanes and flooding.<\/p>\n<p>It may be in your best interest to require renters\u2019 insurance from your residents.
