Four Points

From corner to corner

What is a four point inspection?

Four Point Inspection” focuses only on four main areas of interest in a home:

Roof

Electrical wiring and panels.

VAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning)

Plumbing connections and fixtures

Why is a 4 Point inspection necessary?

Insurance companies have become increasingly reluctant to issue Homeowner Insurance Policies on older homes (usually 20 years old or more).

Their common concern is that there may be conditions in an older home that could become a liability to them. For instance; a home with a roof nearing the end of its reliable service life may fail while under the policy and the homeowner may seek reimbursement from their insurance company for damages to the home or its contents. Similar concerns extend to the condition of the HVAC, electrical and plumbing systems in an older home. If these elements are in poor condition, in need of being updated or replaced or were improperly installed, they may fail and cause fire or water damage to a home.

Newer homes are assumed (by the insurance companies) to not have these problems as frequently as older homes.
