With insurance rates rising it is important to include a 7 point wind mitigation when buying a home in Florida. The main points of this inspection are outlined below and contacting an licensed Inspector will save you money.
Good morning Donald Urschalitz. Interesting information --- it is a lot different in other areas. Although the home I built for my mom was in the mountains of Wyoming, i tried to follow codes from Florida and California to make certain that she would not have future problems. Both states are tough with the codes and I think most of the items are important.
Great post I don't think a lot of home owner's realize the money they can save by having one completed. Thanks for sharing the information. I hope you have a great day.
Many inspectors can do this inspection while doing the regular home inspection. And, typically will offer a discount if done simultaneously. This is what I suggest for my customers.
I had no idea. We get some pretty horrific rain and windstorms in Sacramento during the winter, but I am not aware of any kind of precaution inspections here that are as thorough as the Wind inspection you suggest for Florida.
