Who is eligible for a Hurricane Mitigation Grant?

Once Applicants have reviewed the Initial Inspection Report, they will have the opportunity to choose whether to proceed with a Grant Application. 

To be eligible for a Hurricane Mitigation Grant under the My Safe FL Home Program:

1. The Applicant must be eligible for a Hurricane Mitigation Inspection and must have received an Initial Inspection through the MSFH Program within the 24 months immediately preceding the date of Grant Application. 
2. The home must be a dwelling with an insured value of $700,000 or less.
3. The home must have been built before January 1, 2008, as reflected on the county's property appraiser website. 
4. The Applicant must provide the name and license number of the Contractor intended to perform the Mitigation Project.
5. The Applicant must make the home available for a Final Inspection once the Mitigation Project is completed.
6. The Applicant must agree to provide any and all information received from the Applicant’s insurer to the MSFH Program identifying the discounts realized by the Applicant because of the observed Mitigation Improvements in the Final Inspection Report funded through the Program.
