What Green Foot actually inspects in Hollywood
Written from field inspections by Fabian Fernandez, CMI® (Florida license HI7640). Updated September 19, 2026.
A Hollywood inspection is not one product. East of Federal Highway you are often in condominiums and smaller beach buildings along the Broadwalk. West of that, Hollywood is a large inland city of 1950s–1970s CBS houses.
What inspectors commonly find in Hollywood homes
Broadwalk and beach condos
On the beach side: salt on balcony metal and sliders, unit HVAC, and association envelopes. Recertification and roof work stay with the association. Broward’s Building Safety Inspection Program filing is a structural and electrical report by a Florida-registered engineer or architect. Single-family and duplex houses are exempt. A unit walk-through does not replace it.

Inland 1950s–70s CBS
Inland: roof age, original or aging electrical, plumbing, and HVAC on CBS that has been added onto for decades. Moisture at slabs and poorly detailed additions are ordinary. This is where a 4-point shows up most often.
Match the report to which Hollywood you bought
We write the report for the property in front of us. A Broadwalk unit does not get inland-house language, and a 1960s CBS house does not get tower-condo language.
Canal and lake lots as site context
Canal or lake lots are site context for the house. We do not inspect seawalls or docks. We inspect the house or unit and its systems.
What a Hollywood inspection includes — and what it does not
Broadwalk and beach condos
Unit inspection plus association reality. Wind mitigation is usually building-level.
Inland 1950s–70s CBS
Full home inspection. 4-point where insurers require the four systems.
Not in this inspection
Barns, seawalls, docks, and marine structures are outside a home inspection and outside our insurance inspections. Broward recertification is an engineer or architect filing. Specialized testing and engineering are other professionals. We inspect the house or unit and its systems.
4-point inspections are available in Hollywood where insurers require them—especially inland older houses. Wind mitigation is Florida’s Uniform Mitigation Verification Inspection Form (OIR-B1-1802); inspections on or after April 1, 2026 use the revised form. We do not quote a premium dollar savings. We do not inspect seawalls or docks. Canal or lake lots are site context for the house.

Why inspect Hollywood’s beach and inland sides differently?
Because they are different buildings. East of Federal Highway you are often in condominiums and smaller beach buildings along the Broadwalk. West of that, Hollywood is a large inland city of 1950s–1970s CBS houses.
When is a 4-point needed in Hollywood?
Most often on inland older houses when the insurer wants roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. Citizens requires a 4-point on applications for homes more than 20 years old; private carriers vary. Confirm with the carrier.

Do you inspect barns or seawalls?
No. Barns, seawalls, docks, and marine structures are outside a home inspection and outside our insurance inspections. We inspect the house or unit and its systems.

Does a Broadwalk condo inspection replace Broward recertification?
No. Broward’s Building Safety Inspection Program filing is a structural and electrical report by a Florida-registered engineer or architect. Single-family and duplex houses are exempt. A unit walk-through does not replace it.

Do you inspect canal-front houses in Hollywood?
We inspect the house. Canal or lake lots are site context. Seawalls and docks are out of scope.
Is Hollywood the same inspection as Hallandale Beach?
No. Hollywood is a large city split at Federal Highway: Broadwalk condos east, inland CBS west. Hallandale is a compact Broward beach city immediately south.
