Home Inspection Tips for Jupiter Properties

by Jeff Orr

Inspections are essential when buying a home in Jupiter’s varied neighborhoods. Here’s how to get the most value from your inspection:

Choose a Certified Inspector:
Seek out inspectors familiar with Jupiter’s climate and building styles.

Check the Roof and Windows:
Florida weather means roofs and windows take a beating—inspect for leaks, damage, and age.

Examine the AC and Plumbing:
Popular systems in Jupiter homes should be examined for maintenance history and functionality.

Test for Pests and Mold:
Look for termite damage and signs of hidden moisture, especially in older homes.

Get a Full Report:
Ask your inspector for a detailed, written report with photos. Use this as leverage in negotiations.

A thorough inspection protects your investment and provides leverage for repairs or price adjustments.
