Wildfire hazard designation
CAL FIRE maps this parcel inside a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, in a Local Responsibility Area. California Civil Code §1103 requires the seller to deliver a Natural Hazard Disclosure statement, and insurers rate this zone differently — sometimes materially. Ask Adriana what it means for this address before you write an offer.
