FAQs
How long does a home inspection take in Florida?
A typical home inspection takes 2-4 hours, depending on the size and condition of the property. In Florida, inspectors might take extra time to thoroughly check for climate-related issues like mold, termites, or storm damage. After the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed report outlining their findings, which you can use to negotiate repairs or plan maintenance.
Do I need a home inspection if I’m buying a new construction home?
Yes, even new homes can have issues! Builders sometimes cut corners, and Florida’s climate can expose problems like poor drainage or improper insulation. A home inspector can spot these issues before you move in, saving you from headaches later. Think of it as a final quality check before you take ownership.
Can a home inspection help lower my insurance costs in Florida?
It can, in addition to a general home inspection, a wind mitigation inspection or four-point inspection (which focuses on the roof, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems) can help you qualify for insurance discounts. These inspections show insurers that your home is well-maintained and less likely to suffer damage during a storm.
