My Safe Florida Home Free Wind Inspections

Home Inspections and Matching GrantsHave you had your My Safe Florida Home Inspection done yet?

Well, I just had my Free Wind Inspection completed and I just received my updated insurance bill. I was tickled! My annual insurance premium dropped by over $500! I couldn’t believe it! I do have a new roof on my home. It is less than 3 years old. I had to have it replaced after Hurricane Jeanne and Frances.

My Safe Florida Home program is still offering free wind inspections to Florida homeowners who qualify. The program can offer advice on what areas of your home are potentially at risk in case of a hurricane. And, it can often provide substantial discounts on your homeowners policy. We have seen owners save hundreds. The inspection contains 8 questions, 7 are roof related and the 8th pertains to windows.

You must apply and be approved to be eligible for the free inspection.

According to My Safe Florida Home the inspections are on a first come, first serve basis, and can be discontinued at anytime. Currently, there is a backlog of requests for inspections. Matching grants were available to make upgrades on your home, but they have discontinued the grant portion of the program.

Properties that not eligible for free wind inspections include mobile homes and manufactured homes, apartments, condominiums, multi-family dwellings and businesses. Go online to MySafeFloridaHome.com to order your free My Safe Florida Home Wind Inspection.
