Create a FEMA flood project
Xactimate’s flood-loss estimating workflow can save you significant time when preparing flood-loss claims for the United States’ National Flood Insurance Program. (NFIP) While the workflow is similar to that of a traditional Xactimate estimate, the settings are altered to accommodate NFIP requirements.
Contact your sales representative to add the flood-loss estimating workflow.
