For your wind mitigation inspection to have any bearing on your insurance rates, it must be current, which means it must have been conducted within the last five years.

Wind mitigation inspections give you an idea of how well-protected your home is from wind damage and can save you money on your homeowners’ insurance.

Because these inspections can alert you to potential risk factors in relation to wind damage and can save you money on your insurance premiums in the long run, they are generally considered well worth the expense.
