The roof on record.
Roof replacement permit on county record, built-up. A permit-dated replacement is the most reliable roof age short of an inspection.
The insurance picture.
May be required at renewal.
Carriers order 4-points on older homes (this one dates to 1947) to check wiring, plumbing, and HVAC; the permit-dated roof clears its biggest line item.
No credits inferred.
Nothing on record points to credit-eligible features; a wind-mitigation inspection could still find some.
Construction era on record: pre-1994.
Market stress moderate.
Qualitative read of the local Citizens / private-market balance; not an eligibility decision.
Where it stands.
What to do next.
Generated from this property's records: age against typical service life, code era, and the risk overlays.
The roof is within its early service life. Annual visual checks after storm season are enough for now.
In a high wind-speed zone, documented wind-mitigation features (roof-to-wall straps, secondary water barrier) can materially improve insurability.
This address has weathered 14 named hurricanes on record, most recently in 2024. Photograph the roof now so you have a pre-storm baseline for any future claim.
Hail up to 3 inches has been recorded nearby. After any hailstorm, have the roof inspected promptly; hail claims have tight filing windows.
No wind-mitigation features are inferred from records. A wind-mitigation inspection may surface credits you already qualify for.
County permit records show the roof was last permitted in 2020, about 6 years ago (built-up). A permit-dated replacement is the most reliable roof age short of an on-site inspection.
FEMA maps this address in flood zone X, outside the high-risk Special Flood Hazard Area.
Likely at some point. Florida carriers commonly order a 4-point on older homes (this one dates to 1947) or roofs past about 15 years; the permit-dated roof here clears its biggest line item.
The score weighs roof age against the typical service life of its material, then adjusts for storm exposure. Strong reflects a newer or durable roof with room to spare. Only permit-backed roof ages count as high-confidence.
No. It is a records-based assessment from public data: county permits, assessor records, FEMA flood maps, and wind-zone data. Use it as a starting point, not a substitute for a licensed inspection.

How this report is built.
