What to check on this one

  • Verify flood zone designation and obtain elevation certificate if in AE/VE
  • Get roof inspection report — 1925 home likely needs documentation of recent work
  • Hire 4-point inspection (roof, plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and wind-mitigation assessment
  • Confirm plumbing material — cast iron or galvanized likely; plan replacement costs
  • Review HVAC age and service records; verify cooling adequacy for Florida
  • Inspect foundation and crawlspace for settling, moisture, or structural issues

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