condolences for your mother-in-law.
Insurance covers property losses and would have been contractually obligated to the estate. But FEMA only assists the resident of the flooded dwelling. Y'all do not live there and do not qualify. Unfortunately an act of God reduced the inheritance, but fortunately it did not compromise your day to day existence. I take no joy in both of your loses.



All this, such a shitty situation. The fact that your wife lost her mom then has to deal with this nightmare really sucks. Unfortunately, I can't see anyway taxpayers should be on the hook for paying someone's inheritance. Hire a good estate attorney who will maximize the value of the estate but still close it out properly with the least amount of headaches to all beneficiaries. Hopefully your wife does not have a bunch of money grubbing siblings who will create additional unnecessary pain and aggravation to an already terrible situation.

I heard that if you are in a flood zone but don't have flood insurance they won't help. But if you are not in a flood zone and flooded they will help if it's your primary residence. Not sure though just what I've heard.

Totally agree but as a taxpayer in this situation I question it.
