A Wind Mitigation Inspection can directly impact your home insurance premiums by potentially lowering them. Insurance companies assess risk when determining your premium, and a home with proven wind-resistant features presents a lower risk. By providing your insurer with the results of a Wind Mitigation Inspection, you may qualify for discounts that could significantly reduce your annual insurance costs. The savings from these discounts often outweigh the cost of the inspection, making it a smart investment for homeowners in high-wind areas.

A 4 Point Inspection is often required by insurance companies before they will issue or renew a homeowner’s insurance policy, especially for homes that are over 20-30 years old. If you’re purchasing an older home, or if your insurance company has requested it, you should schedule a 4 Point Inspection.

Typically, a full home inspection takes about 2-3 hours, depending on the size of the home.  Wind mitigation and 4 point inspections are generally completed in about 1 hour.

A detailed, comprehensive report outlining the condition of your home, complete with photos and recommendations.  Additionally, after the inspection is complete, your licensed home inspector will be available to discuss the report with you in more detail and answer any questions you may have.

Full home inspections start at $250. Costs vary depending on the size of the home.
Wind Mitigation and 4 Point Inspections start at $150 each, and can be bundled for savings.
