FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Is a lease hazard report required by law?
AB 646 (Government Code § 8589.45) requires flood-hazard disclosure to tenants before lease signing whenever the landlord has actual knowledge that the property is in a flood hazard area, has been told so by a public agency, is required to carry flood insurance by a lender, or is currently carrying flood insurance. The full lease hazard report is best practice — it packages the AB 646 disclosure with the rest of the tenant-facing hazard picture.
Do I need a new report for every lease renewal?
Recommended, especially when the underlying hazard maps have been updated. FEMA and Cal Fire republish maps on a rolling basis; renewing the report at renewal keeps the disclosure current and the acknowledgement fresh.
Can I order for my entire portfolio at once?
Yes. Corporate accounts support batch ordering across every unit and every property in the portfolio, with one bill, one dashboard, and one pipeline view.
What's the difference between a lease report and a residential NHD?
Scope and format. The lease report is streamlined for landlord-tenant use — a compact 5-page format with the AB 646 flood disclosure table, all six statutory hazards, tax data, water-conserving fixtures advisory, and a landlord/tenant acknowledgement block. The residential NHD is built for a sale transaction and carries the seller/buyer disclosure statement.
