Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
Buyers in Can-andan should treat flood risk as a primary — not secondary — due diligence item. Isabel carries a high flood-risk rating, and this barangay shares that profile. Request DRRMO flood history records, inspect drainage proximity, verify the property's floor level above the nearest waterway, and consider whether flood insurance is available.
