What do you do when youve lost your paid off home to a flood, and waited 4 years for fema to do nothing ?

Thats right !!! Our home was severly damaged in a flood 4 years ago and it WAS declared a disaster area. Fema gave us $800 for a footer and never went under the house. Then they said it qualified to be bought out and after 4 years of government runarounds and the roof collapsing and FEMA not coming up with any more money we had to sell it and take a $40,000 loss !!! We never got a credit card like Katrina victims or any other assistance. We had to evacuate the premises immediately on our dime with no help from the government and relocate. We have spent nearly $25,000 bucks in rent waiting on them to say we don't have the money yet to buy your 49,000 dollar home !!! A construction company had been really pestering us to buy it and we got fed up and sold it. Now we are looking at foreclosures and bank repo's and home auction websites, but people with more money than us keep outbidding us on homes that we see and like !!! GOOD LUCK TO NEW ORLEANS AND MINNESOTA !!! How do we get help ???What do you do when youve lost your paid off home to a flood, and waited 4 years for fema to do nothing ?

Remember that next time you think about voting for a Republican.
What happened to your insurance company?
I know it is hard and I know you are not wanting to hear this. But it is time to move on. It is time to depend only on yourselves. You deserve to be happy again.



If this were back in the 30's and 40's, the government would not step in at all. Remember Oklahoma state. No one helped them, they had to help themselves.



It is now time for you and your family to do the same. Turn your backs on what use to be. You have your life, now go live it.
smart people who live in a high risk zone know enough to get insurance instead of hoping the government bails them out..

and by the way your governor was given a large chunk of change to help repair the levies but he spent it on a stadium instead...

that wasn't anywhere in the news.. why.. it didn't make bush look bad
