Isn't the general consensus on the house that it was beautiful until the latest owners got ahold of it?
As for flooding, is the question how many times did it flood ("how many past issues are there to fix?"), or "do you think it will flood in the future?"
There's been debate about future floods and how the county is trying to remedy future flooding. I'm probably naive but I think they are doing a lot as far as new detention ponds etc. I guess I'm just saying I don't live my life worried that my house is going to flood.
All this is coming from someone who really wants to see the house saved though so take it for what it's worth...

This house needs to be bought by someone willing to live in it. I seriously considered buying it and renovating it to sell, at little or no profit. I don't think it would work. While the design is unusual,it's the formica that would scare off most modern buyers. But the formica is what makes the house a unique historical artifact. If someone can't be found who is interested in living there, the only other alternative is some non profit organization. I don't know of any who would step in to buy something like this. Perhaps someone does.
