What Is an Elevation Certificate?
An Elevation Certificate (EC) is an official document that details the elevation levels of a property relative to base flood elevations. It is often required for determining flood risk for insurance purposes, meeting municipal building regulations, complying with floodplain management rules, and providing essential information for property buyers and lenders. If your property is within or near a designated floodplain, your insurance provider may require an EC to determine flood insurance rates and coverage eligibility.
