How long does a Wind Mitigation Inspection take?

The inspection takes 30 minutes to 1 hour usually.  In order to make the inspection faster, homeowners should have the attic access open and any documentation regarding the roof, windows and shutters handy.

I had a home inspection before I purchased the home. Can I use that report instead of getting a four point inspection report?

The insurance companies do not want large reports that contain other information. They want only specific information about the HVAC, plumbing, electrical system and roof in a short one or two page signed document. Before you pay for a home inspection you should research with your insurance company if they will require a Four Point Inspection Report. You can end up paying twice for much of the same service and information gathering.

Is there a standard form in a four point inspection to fill out?

There is no industry-wide standard form for a Four Point Inspection. Some insurance companies provide their own forms; however, most insurance companies will accept forms from companies that perform home inspections provided that they are filled out by qualified individuals.
