What gets extra attention in Tarpon Springs
Salt air, flood history and storm repairs
Near the water in Tarpon Springs, salt air speeds up corrosion of AC condensers, electrical components, fasteners and exterior metal. Anthony looks for evidence of past water intrusion and the quality of any storm-related repairs. If you need flood insurance, ask your agent whether an elevation certificate is required; that is a separate document prepared by a surveyor.
Older systems and insurance
Many Tarpon Springs homes are old enough that insurers ask for a 4-point inspection. Roof age, electrical panel type, wiring, plumbing materials and water heater installation all get documented, and it is worth knowing about any of them before your inspection period ends.
Wind mitigation credits
Every Tarpon Springs homeowner pays for windstorm coverage. A wind mitigation inspection documents features such as roof shape, roof-to-wall connections and opening protection on the OIR-B1-1802 form so your insurer can apply any credits you qualify for.
