New Changes to the Wind Mitigation Inspection Form

Courtesy of our good friends at Guardian Angel Inspections,!

The State of Florida Office of Insurance Regulation has released an updated version of the Uniform Mitigation Verification Inspection Form (OIR-B1-1802), which goes into effect April 1, 2026.

📌 What You Need to Know
• New inspections performed on or after April 1, 2026 must use the updated form
• Insurance discounts (credits) from the new form will not be applied until July 2026
• There may be a temporary gap where inspections are completed but credits are not yet reflected on insurance policies

🛠️ What Changed on the New Wind Mitigation Form:

1. More Detailed Roof Covering Documentation – Inspectors must now provide permit dates, product approvals, and installation years. If documentation is missing, it must be clearly noted. This increases the time needed for verification.
2. Expanded Wind Zone and Building Code Classification – New region classifications based on wind speeds (ASCE 7-22 standards) and more precise building code identification increase the complexity of inspections.
3. Stricter Roof Deck and Attachment Verification – New categories include specific uplift resistance values and additional attachment types. Inspectors must now identify and document the weakest attachment more carefully.
4. More Detailed Roof-to-Wall Connection Requirements – Expanded definitions and stricter requirements for nail counts, placement, and uplift capacity require more thorough attic inspections.
5. Increased Documentation for Secondary Water Resistance (SWR) – Only specific systems now qualify. Standard underlayment no longer counts, requiring additional verification and photos.
6. More Complex Opening Protection Classification – A new multi-level system requires identifying the weakest protection across all openings, as well as identifying damaged openings, increasing inspection time.

🏡 How This Impacts Buyers, Sellers, and Agents

1. More Time and Documentation Required – Inspections now require more research, photos, measurements, and verification.
2. Insurance Credits Will Be Delayed – Insurance credits may not be applied until July 2026, which can affect insurance quotes and closing expectations.
3. Increased Inspection Costs – Due to additional time and documentation, wind mitigation inspection pricing will increase.

✅ What We Recommend
• Agents: Set expectations early regarding delayed credits
• Buyers: Do not rely on immediate insurance savings
• Sellers: Be prepared for updated requirements and pricing changes

⚠️ Why This Matters
The updated form is designed to improve accuracy and standardization across inspections. While beneficial long term, it introduces short term changes in cost, timing, and expectations.
