What to check on this one

  • Verify flood zone designation—obtain FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map for exact zone and elevation certificate if AE/VE.
  • Confirm roof age and material; get recent inspection report (insurers scrutinize 1897-era homes closely).
  • Review plumbing type and condition—cast-iron or original materials common in 1897 builds; verify recent updates.
  • Obtain 4-point inspection and wind-mitigation report; required for older home insurance approval in Florida.
  • Clarify short-term rental eligibility with City of Jacksonville—verify deed restrictions and local licensing requirements.
  • Request complete renovation scope and permits pulled—confirm all major systems (electrical, HVAC, foundation) inspected post-remodel.

Flagged from the listing itself — not an inspection, and no substitute for one. Bring these to the showing.
