What to check on this one

  • Verify roof age and condition; 1971 home likely needs inspection soon for insurance eligibility.
  • Obtain 4-point inspection (roof, HVAC, plumbing, electrical) — required for older FL homes.
  • Confirm flood zone designation with FEMA map; 'unknown' status must be clarified before closing.
  • Check plumbing material — cast-iron or polybutylene common in 1971; costly replacements possible.
  • Verify HVAC system age and maintenance records; typical lifespan 15 years in FL climate.
  • Review septic vs. municipal sewer; if septic, obtain service history and last pump-out date.

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