A 4-Point Inspection is a kind of home inspection that is vital for getting your home insured from the top insurance companies. Florida is affected by hurricanes and thunderstorms on a regular basis, so the insurance companies, before insuring, have laid some guidelines for homes that are over 25 years old. For this reason, every home in the state of Florida should undergo 4-Point Inspection by a licensed inspector, engineer or contractor. The experts will follow all the guidelines while inspecting the home and prepare a report based on its condition. Depending on this report, the insurer will offer home insurance to the owners.

Reasons To Get 4-Point Inspection
These days, insurance companies have become vigilant when it comes to renewing the home insurance. They are aware of the issues faced by many homeowners in the older homes. They become reluctant to insure a property because some of the problems in a home can be a liability for them, bringing loses when the homeowner claims for damages. For instance, if a home (more than 20 years old) has damaged electrical wiring, the homeowner can claim for damages (during the policy term) in case there is an accident due to faulty wiring. This can also be extended to the older roof, plumbing system or HVAC systems. If all these components are in a poor condition and need a replacement, they can greatly damage a home. Thus, the companies prefer 4-point inspection, thereby greatly reducing the losses.
