Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at floridapropertyinspect@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

 

  • Do you feel comfortable assigning that responsibility to your neighbor?
  • Are you comfortable with them having access to your belongings?
  • Can you rely on them to maintain a consistent schedule?
  • What if any damage occurs during their watch?
  • Consider the potential impact on your friendship.
  • Keep in mind that neighbors typically lack training and insurance.
  • They may have other commitments or go on vacations, putting your home at a lower priority.


 

  • Even with the water turned off, other issues can arise.
  • Your A/C system could freeze up, or the condensate drain line could get blocked.
  • Storms could cause roof leaks or damage from upstairs neighbors' A/C issues.
  • Under Florida law, unless negligence is proven, damage to your unit becomes your responsibility.
  • Minor water leaks can escalate into severe damage.
  • Mold can quickly spread, leading to costly remediation and health problems.
  • We can assist you in detecting and addressing these issues promptly.


A typical home inspection includes a thorough examination of the home's foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and other systems and components. Our inspectors will provide you with a detailed report highlighting any issues or concerns they may find.


 

  • Ensure that your chosen home watch provider has a reputable track record.
  • Do you have verifiable evidence of their visits?
  • Will you receive immediate notifications in case of damage?
  • Are they using your property or vehicle during your absence?
  • Understand the potential limitations of your insurance coverage if contact reports are delayed.
  • It's essential to verify the credentials of your home watch provider.


 

 

  • It's not just about temperature; humidity plays a crucial role.
  • Mold can begin to develop rapidly when humidity levels are high.
  • If your AC fails after you've left in May, mold could cause extensive damage.
  • Mold claims are often denied by insurance companies or may exceed your coverage limits.


 

 

 

  • Some individuals may falsely claim qualifications for home watch services.
  • They might view home watch as an easy source of income.
  • Unfortunately, unreliable providers may not fulfill their obligations or misuse your property.
  • Are they prepared to inspect your home after a hurricane and connect you with trusted emergency vendors?
  • Trustworthy professionals have the knowledge and resources to handle various situations.
  • Home watch isn't a one-size-fits-all service, so your decision should be based on more than just the price.
  • A reputable home watcher operates with a robust support system in place.


  Florida Property Inspections, Inc. offers you the assurance you seek! Our credentials include licensing and insurance, and we have a network of seasoned experts to cater to your requirements. Rest assured, we prioritize prompt communication in case of any necessary updates while you're absent.
