Are you living in a sinkhole zone?

If it’s true that the key to real estate is location, location, location, then you would likely want to know if you are in a natural disaster zone BEFORE you buy!

While the odds of anyone in New York City or Long Island living in an area that’s prone to sinkholes is minor, what about around the rest of the country?

This article provides a link to an interesting website with information concerning the prevalence of certain types of potential risks ranging from sinkholes to earthquakes to nuclear reactors in various locations around the country.

As an example, if the address for the offices of Hallmark Abstract Service is entered into the locator for sinkholes, our readers will be relieved to know that we are in no known danger.

Find out for yourself at this link.
