What inspections do I need for a Keys home?

By Steve Conley

Short Answer

Standard inspections for a Keys home include general home inspection, wind mitigation inspection, four-point inspection, termite inspection, and flood elevation verification. Waterfront properties also need seawall, dock, and marine surveys.

You need a standard home inspection, plus marine inspections for any waterfront property -- seawall, dock pilings, and water depth. I also recommend wind mitigation and 4-point inspections for insurance purposes. In the Keys, skipping any of these is a risk you should not take.
