How to check a Waco home's flood zone

How can I find out if a home near Waco is in a flood zone?

Look the address up on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center, which shows the official flood zone. Homes in a high-risk zone with a federally backed loan must carry flood insurance. The Texas Seller's Disclosure also asks whether the home is in a floodplain and has flooded before. Ask for it early, and get a flood insurance quote during your option period.
