The SEA home is now in the flight path of a bunch of planes. When built in 1926, the place might have been impacted by the Navy base over the hill with their flights, many that ended up in the lake instead of runway. Base left about 50 years ago, so that did not impact. There are float

No that is the issue, it is NOT public record. FEMA rules prevent disclosure of previous claims and payouts.  Some of the houses in her neighborhood have been flipped several times, every 2-3 years after a flood and repair, to the next sucker who has no clue.  Unless a buyer goes around and

I’m trying to understand how one would be on the hook from a liability standpoint if they sold? That’s like saying if you don’t disclose a property is in a flood zone you’re liable. It’s public record and an underwriter or lender is going to look for this as a part of the underwriting process.
