What is a 4-point Inspection of Home?

There is a common belief that 4-point inspection is usually done on automobiles or to check the quality of fiber but that is not true as it’s a way to measure the quality of something in a manner that evaluates any inaccuracies quickly. In Florida, 4-point inspection is used for property insurance purposes. So insurance companies require the house or any other property (commercial or private) inspect in this manner which is by the way very discreet method. It will only take 20 to 30 minutes of your time. It basically focuses on 4 points as the name suggests. These are:

•  HVAC  (this includes the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning of the house).
•  Plumbing connections all over the house and their fixtures.
•  Electrical wiring and panels all over the property.
•  Roof quality.

Note that this kind of inspection is done on the houses which are over the age of 25. Every housing society has their own different methods of inspections and their inspection forms can also be different as this is not a standard test. Through all of the above 4 points, insurance teams evaluate the risks and liabilities of the property. They will check if there is anything that might need repairing or maintenance. If these things are not mentioned in the reports, then it could cause serious hazards for those who are living in the house.

In Florida, 4-point inspection is used for property insurance purposes.

The criteria insurance companies use to review the house or property includes these:

•  The current operating conditions of the house or property.
•  The scheduled maintenance requirements of the house.
•  The expected service life of a house

So when a person wants to buy a house, he should be aware of these 4 points according to the law of Florida State. The results of this 4-point inspection are provided within the 24 hours of the inspection under the above-mentioned criteria. Now there are many home inspection companies in Florida but an insurance company would only rely on the reports which contain all the facts being reported by certified professionals and our company South Country Home Inspection has been doing this since past many years. On these bases, the company will issue the insurance policy on this house for more years. If the house or the property does not meet the criteria for insurance, then the purchase of the house or property will be canceled.

The 4-point inspection benefits the insurance company by reviewing the property in a quick and smart way. It also tells the condition of the house to the next house owners fairly.
