The fair market value of the residence was $280,000 when it was damaged by a flood on June 10, 2019 that resulted from not turning off the bath water before leaving for vacation. The fair market value of the residence after the flood was $240,000 and insurance proceeds received in August 2019 totaled $15,000.
