Default What it is

Basically it's to make sure your attic trusses are tied down to your cinder block walls and possibly that you have six nails per shingle.
An inspection was 75 - 100 dollars and can save you that much per year on your insurance if you have it. Most insuraners required at this point.
The reports are good for at least 5 years and if you know the last insurer. They probably have one on file for free.

When you buy your house this is something you should ask for in advance as well as a termite inspection insurance certificate
