How do I pass a four point inspection?
A four point inspection is not a pass or fail, however, an insurance company may request repairs after a four point inspection is completed in order to qualify for insurance. Some insurance companies may provide a grace period of about 30 days after a home purchase to repair/fix items noted in the four point inspection.
How long is a four point inspection good for?
A four point inspection is generally good for the life of the policy or until the insurance underwriter wants to request a new inspection (which is rare). That being said, a new four point inspection may be requested if a home is sold regardless if the seller has a previous four point available.
How long does a four point inspection take?
It depends on the home’s age, size, and complexity, but they usually don’t take longer than an hour to an hour and a half.
Does an inspector need to come back out to re-inspect after repairs have been completed?
Most insurance companies will want a “clean” report before they are willing to insure the home. If deficiencies are noted on the four-point report and the seller makes repairs, an inspector will need to return to the home to verify that the repairs have been completed. Then an updated four-point report will be created to send back to your insurance company.
There is a trip charge if the inspector needs to go back to a home to verify repairs have been completed.
Can a 4 point inspection replace a home inspection?
A 4 Point Inspection is not a replacement for a full home inspection. A home inspection covers many other important items in the home, such as grading, the structure, and appliances. In addition, the 4 point inspection only covers the 4 points in a general overview. A home inspection report may provide additional detail and recommendations.
