A Florida program that inspects houses to see if they are storm-protected and gives grants to help homeowners strengthen their dwellings has a high satisfaction rating among participants, the state announced yesterday.
Florida Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink said in a statement that a survey of Floridians participating in the My Safe Florida Home (MSFH) program found 97 percent of homeowners rated the application process as easy or somewhat easy; 80 percent rated their overall experience as excellent or good; and 82 percent of respondents said they are willing to recommend the program to neighbors as hurricane season draws closer.
Her announcement said the inspection satisfaction survey was sent to 19,795 participants with a response rate of 23 percent (4,636). Only single family homes are eligible.
