Free Hurricane Inspection for Your Home
How will your home fare in a hurricane? Find out by applying for a free home inspection. Through the My Safe Florida Home Program, “wind-resistance” experts will inspect homes and suggest ways to strengthen the structure against the damaging effects of a hurricane. Who’s eligible: Floridians who own a single-family, site-built home with an insured value less than $500,000 or owners of a home located in a multi-family complex of up to four units. If you live in a high-risk area and the inspection reveals upgrades are in order, you may apply for a matching grant of up to $5,000 for the improvements. This state program will serve up to 12,000 homes with open enrollment until November 15, 2006. More info: http://www.mysafefloridahome.com or (800) 342-2762.
