What to check on this one

  • Verify flood zone designation—check FEMA map; if AE/VE, obtain elevation certificate.
  • Pull CDD bond payoff amount and remaining term from St. Johns County.
  • Confirm roof age/condition; 2007 home may approach insurer scrutiny threshold.
  • Request 4-point inspection + wind-mitigation report for insurance quote.
  • Review HOA/CDD documents: covenants, pool maintenance fees, reserve funding.
  • Inspect pool equipment age, warranty status, and annual maintenance costs.

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