Want a free hurricane home inspection? Want the state to pay half the
cost of any recommended repair to prepare your home for the next
storm? As of today, inspection applications are available at
http://www.mysafefloridahome.com, a Web site operated by the Florida
Comprehensive Hurricane Damage Mitigation Program. If you have an
inspection and hurricane upgrades are recommended, the state will pay
up to $5,000 in matching funds to qualified Florida homeowners; and
low-income homeowners will be eligible for $5,000 grants with no
match required. There are rules: The program applies only to Floridians
who own a single-family, site-built home with an insured value less than
$500,000; or owners in a residential building of up to four units
providing all unit owners agree to participate. Mobile homes,
manufactured homes, second homes, rental properties, apartments and
businesses are not eligible. Interested homeowners should apply as soon
as possible -- the program's funding, part of the state budget, has a limit.
For immediate assistance, visit the Web site or call toll-free:
(800) 342-2762 in Florida or out-of-state (850) 413-3089.
