A CLOSER LOOK
Before you buy, look above the beautiful rooms.
What we found
This home was less than five years old when our inspection found missing roof covering at a roof junction. The report documented the exposed area and recommended repair by a qualified roofer.
What it means for you
A newer home can still have important defects. Missing roof covering can allow water into the layers below—making this a repair to investigate before closing.
Your next conversation
Ask a qualified roofer to evaluate the area and provide a repair estimate. Review the findings with your agent before your inspection deadline.

PRACTICAL ANSWERS
Plan your Minneola inspection.
How much does a home inspection in Minneola cost?
Pre-Purchase Inspections start at $550 for properties under 2,000 square feet and 60 years old or less. Pricing varies for larger or older properties. Both 4 Point and Wind Mitigation reports are included at no additional inspection charge with a full inspection under 4,000 sq ft. At 4,000 sq ft or more, standalone insurance rates apply. Review your property’s quote and selected services when booking.
How long does a full home inspection take?
Typically about 2½–3 hours. The time varies with the home’s size, age and access to major systems. Separate insurance inspections have a different scope.
Should I inspect a new home before the builder walkthrough?
Yes. An independent New Construction Inspection gives you documented findings to discuss with your builder. Arrange builder permission, working utilities and access before the appointment, and allow time to review the report before your walkthrough or closing.
When should I schedule an 11th Month inspection?
Before your builder’s actual warranty submission deadline, with time to receive the report and submit your concerns. You do not need to wait until month eleven. Check the dates and instructions in your warranty documents.
Do I need a Wind Mitigation report too?
Ask your insurance agent. Wind Mitigation documents wind-resistant construction features, while a 4 Point report documents four major systems. They serve different purposes; confirm which reports your insurer needs before selecting services.
When will I receive my Pre-Purchase Inspection report?
The same day as your inspection. Leave time to review the findings with your agent and arrange any recommended follow-up before your inspection deadline.
Researching a specific property? Local records and planning tips
Optional background for your purchase or renovation. You do not need to complete this research to book an inspection.
Find the history of the work that matters.
Minneola’s Building Department directs users to its public permit portal for permit history. Confirm the city jurisdiction and search the actual property. If a roof replacement or renovation is unclear, ask the department for the relevant record and completion information.
Minneola Building DepartmentUse the right inspection for the right milestone.
A finished new-home inspection gives you observations to discuss with the builder. For a resale, the report supports questions about condition and recommended further evaluation. After you move in, a warranty visit can document concerns before your own submission deadline.
Explore this inspection’s scopeKeep your own warranty deadline in view.
After move-in, the small things you notice can become useful questions for a warranty inspection. Read your written deadline and submission instructions, then leave time for the visit and report. Documented observations support your request; the builder determines its response under your agreement.
Understand the inspection and next stepsA growing home story, one property at a time.
Minneola’s Building Department covers both new construction and changes to existing structures and systems. Its public permit-history resource is useful when you are comparing a new home with one that has already been altered.
Think about the rooms you will use and the questions you carried away from the showing. Your inspection connects those plans to observed conditions, without assuming that a newer finish tells the whole story.
