The "My State Florida Home (MSFH) Program....What is it?
It is a program where Florida Home Owners may be rewarded for "Hurricane Strengthening" their homes.
According to Florida officials today, they are one month ahead of schedule on offering free hurricane home inspections to Florida residents. The "My State Florida Home" (MSFH) program is now urging more homeowners in Florida to take advantage of the services offered through this program.
In late April, the program resumed offering inspections and more than 50,000 Floridians have received free wind inspections.
You ask how does this program benefit you.....well, keep reading!
How would you like savings on your hurricane insurance premiums and matching grants up to $5,000 to help strengthen your home against hurricanes? Receive a free inspection through the MSFH program and you may be eligible. That's right. I didn't stutter.... you may qualify for these benefits. Apply at www.MyFloridaSafeHome.com or over the toll-free helpline at 1-866-513-MSFH (6734).
If you live in a single-family site-built home you are eligible for the inspection. When you receive a free wind inspection through the MSFH program, you will receive a detailed inspection report. The report comes complete with eligibility information on matching grants. It also comes with estimated insurance premium discounts, if applicable.
The following requirements are necessary for the matching grant:
Homeowner
Must have received a completed wind inspection report after May 1,2007.
Live in a single-family, site built home - built before March 1, 2002.
Must have a valid homestead exemption
Insured value of $300,000 or less
Be located in the wind-borne debris region.
The Florida Cabinet this week is requiring insurance companies for the next 90 days to recognize the MSFH wind inspection reports as sufficient evidence for homeowners to access insurance premium discounts, if they are eligible.
Through this program, homeowners are being reimbursed for half the cost up to $5,000 on a variety of home improvements. These include hurricane shutters, reinforced garage doors and roof enhancements.
You don't have to be a genius to figure out that this may be worth checking out!
This photo was taken after Hurricane Frances. It is amazing to see how fast our damaged trees and bushes revive and become more beautiful than ever. I've traveled all over and there is no more beautiful place than Palm Beach County, Florida!
