A million dollars in paid advertising is hitting Florida airways this week, urging homeowners to sign up for a free home inspection. The home inspections are designed to suggest improvements homeowners can make to strengthen their homes against hurricanes. My Safe Homes spokesman Kevin Cate says homeowners whose homes are inspected will likely save money in the long run.

“They can get online, they can go to mysafefloridahome.com and apply for a free wind inspection,” Cade said. “A wind inspector will then come to their home and see if they qualify for discounts to their wind insurance.”

Grants of up to five thousand dollars are also available to homeowners to help them cover the costs of improvements.
