I'm not familiar with a hurricane zone, I wouldn't know what to look for. I'm familiar with cold winters, hot summers, and high wind. After following the inspector around through my house, I'm convinced that all I need is a checklist to make sure I didn't forget anything, and I'm good. If I bought in your area, I wouldn't be, so I'd consider it a reasonable investment to get it inspected.



See, that too is a non issue. If you're working off the logic that you should have every house inspected that you purchase, then why would the new owner give 2 shits about what your inspection log says? I sure didn't care what the prior owners for my house had to say about it until I looked at it myself.

Code changes etc. I could get into the long speel about why, but dont really care that much to type it out. Like you said, ultimately you dont have to do it, but 100-300 bucks to me is a no brainer to have a pro inspect your home.
