Good News about Flood Insurance!
Got some great news today about flood insurance for property owners in DeBordieu and Pawleys Island, SC.
Read the report below from Cashion Drolet, the Sr. VP of Government Affairs for the South Carolina Association of Realtors.
Great news on the federal front to report!! The United States Senate voted 72-22 to approve the Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act (H.R. 3370). Both Senators Lindsey Graham and Tim Scott supported the measure. The Senate acted quickly to pass the bill as amended by the House to avoid the need for a conference committee to reconcile any differences. The new bill further reins in and holds the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) accountable for the Biggert-Waters implementation issues.
As passed, the bill repeals FEMA’s authority to increase premium rates at time of sale or new flood map, and refunds the excessive premium to those who bought a property before FEMA warned them of the rate increase. The bill limits premium increases to 18% annually on newer properties and 25% for some older ones. Additionally, the bill adds a small assessment on policies until everyone is paying full cost for flood insurance. President Obama is expected to sign the bill into law when it arrives at the White House.

2014 Plantation Tours
The Sixty-Seventh Annual Plantation Tour of plantations and town houses in and near Georgetown, SC, will be held March 28 & 29, 2014, just north of historic Charleston. 
Sponsored by the Episcopal Church Women of Prince George Winyah Episcopal Church, the tours attract folks from all over South Carolina and beyond. Many out-of-towners enjoy overnight accommodations at DeBordieu for the weekend. If you need help with that, give me a call at 843-455-4523, or email me at TroiKaz@DeBordieu.com and I’ll hook you up with our on-site rental department.
The majority of the plantations and town houses are privately owned and graciously shared with the Episcopal Church Women of Prince George, Winyah Parish once per year. A different group of homes is on tour each day.
As part of the tour of pre-Revolutionary and antebellum churches, town houses and plantations, visitors are invited to the Winyah Indigo Society Hall for tea each afternoon.
Home baked goods, original framed art from local artists, many of them members of the church, books from the Georgetown Historical Society, and the award winning cookbook, Plantation Tours and Tastes, will be available for sale in the Parish Hall.
In addition, the annual Oyster Roast & Pig Pickin’ hosted by the Prince George Men’s Minsitry will take place on Friday, March 28th 6:00 pm at Hazzard Marine, 200 S. Meeting St, Georgetown. $25 per ticket. Tickets may be purchased with Tour tickets or through the church office.
Houses will be open from 9:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Please allow a full day for each day’s tour. Histories and maps showing the routes for the day are provided with tickets. Hosts and hostess will be happy to answer any questions concerning the houses that are open. Visitors provide their own transportation. Only cars and vans are allowed on the tours because of the many low-hanging oak limbs and soft roadbeds. Buses are not allowed.

Troi’s Video Productions!
Stepping out of my comfort zone….. I’m going to start providing video on my listings at DeBordieu, the private gated residential community just south of Pawleys Island, South Carolina.
As you may know, I used to work in television…. WAY behind the camera, so I doubt I will ever want to be actually step in front of it, (it adds 10 lbs.) but I thought it would be fun to use a service like Animoto to stitch the pictures together into a video production.
Here are my first attempts with two of my listings. I would love to know what you think!
Comment here, email me at TroiKaz@DeBordieu.com, or call me at 843-455-4523.
