About Home Inspections
Homes in Florida can be old, bungalow-styled, or brand new so your home inspection report can vary drastically. Depending on the home, we could find evidence of termites, structural issues, or mold issues. This is because Florida is a very humid environment. Also, Florida homes tend to flex and move frequently since we are closer to sea level. Waypoint Property Inspection can help you with your home inspection throughout Central Florida and Tampa Bay so you can have peace of mind.

What Our Home Inspection Includes
View a sample home inspection report.
How Much Does A Home Inspection Cost in Florida?
Home Inspection Costs can vary depending on the size and age of the home. For example, a smaller home that is relatively new might only cost about $350. On the other hand, a much larger home that was built in the 1920s would take a lot longer to inspect. Therefore, home inspection fees could be above $1,000. Read more about home inspection costs.

FAQ's
How soon can I schedule an inspection?
You can schedule an inspection directly online to find how far out we are booking appointments. Typically, it is business 2-3 days.
How long does an inspection take?
The average length of time for a home inspection is 2-3 hours, but it typically depends on the size of the house, and the inspector’s process for inspecting. Read more here.
How do I prepare for an inspection?
Read our blog post here for a full breakdown on how to prepare for your home inspection.
When will I receive the home inspection report?
With Waypoint, you will receive the report the same day. In most cases, it will be later in the afternoon.
How do I know which inspector's are qualified or experienced?
Whenever you are calling a home inspection company for a quote, be sure to ask them what home inspector organizations they belong to and why you should schedule with them. You can also explore their websites and online reviews.
Where do you service?
You can find a list of cities/counties we service at the service area page!
Does An Inspector Need To Come Back Out To Re-Inspect After Repairs Have Been Completed?
Yes and no. You are not required to have a re-inspection after an inspection. However, in some cases, you may opt to do so or need to. For example, with a four-point inspection, you may need a re-inspection to verify repairs have been made for insurance purposes. Additionally, after repairs have been made on a home you are purchasing, you may opt to have a re-inspection to verify the seller had the repairs completed professionally.
We do charge for re-inspections for a nominal fee.
Can You Tell Us How Much Repairs Will Cost?
The short answer is no. While home inspectors on-site may give you a range for certain repairs, we are not contractors, and repair pricing tends to fluctuate depending on your area, the economy, and the company. Ultimately, you should speak with your Realtor and ask for recommendations for contractors to inquire with.

Oliver with Waypoint was awesome. Which is not a word I would have ever thought I’d use to describe a home inspector, but I did. He took the time to review the report with me, showed me the areas in question. He explained why some were blue and some were written in red. I mean he was so thorough, I walked away with a clear understanding of the inspection.When someone gets a sparkle in their eye as the excitingly tell you about the condition of the electrical panel, you KNOW they love what they do. I really cannot say enough about Oliver or Waypoint I see why my agent wanted to use them.Thank you Oliver and Waypoint for making this such an enjoyable experience (another phrase I’d never thinks I’d use when referring to a home inspection).

My mortgage broker used Waypoint in 2008 to do the home inspection of the property I was purchasing.
