"But then the Corp of Engineers decided to release the levees that were upstream of me. The water hit the already overburdened waterways and backwashed a ton of water into my subdivision. I had about 5 feet in my house."
Dang, that is terrible. How much did it cost you to repair? Did you have any government programs available?

I was more fortunate that a lot of people. I had some good friends that helped me out with building materials and mold remediation. We had a friend that is a contractor and he charged me less than he would have otherwise. I was able to get some FEMA money, but certainly not enough to make the repairs.
At the end of the day it probably cost me around $75,000 to $80,000 to get everything repaired, buy new appliances, etc.
