Local news has covered a wave of hurricane-damaged homes being demolished here to comply with federal flood rules, as owners keep paying insurance and utilities on houses they can't live in (WFLA).

Why are so many homes being torn down here?
Homes ruled substantially damaged must meet current flood rules, and for many older homes a teardown and raised rebuild is the practical route.
Can you just clear the lot to sell it?
Yes. Demolition and clearing can leave a clean lot for a buyer to build on.
