Mistake #1: Skipping Hurricane Certification Checks
New 2025 Florida law requires updated wind mitigation reports. Verify:
- ✅ Roof-to-wall connections
- ✅ Impact window certifications
- ✅ Garage door reinforcement
"Last month, 23% of Fort Lauderdale homes failed updated wind standards."
Mistake #2: Overlooking AI Scan Limitations
While 78% of buyers now use instant inspection apps:
- ⚡ Misses mold behind walls
- ⚡ Can't test water pressure
- ⚡ Fails to check GFCI outlets
Always pair with professional inspection.
