$100 for scanner (handwritten reports must be submitted as pdf)
JVI Insurance Requirements
Fee's to submit report through InspectionPort

I'm not going to turn a profit until I've done 15 to 20 of these and no one can give me any idea how many I can except.

I don't know of any insurance requirements. As far as I know they left general liability up to us. I wasn't told anything about any other requirements. I haven't given them any insurance information and they told me I was good to go.

That's what I thought too. I got an email from Phillip Nation last week which had the specific requirements for General Liability and Vehicle Liability Insurance. I don't have time to locate it now, but I will repost it later. It was very specific and it indicated that JVI must be a Certificate Holder for your insurance before you would be given any inspections.

Here are the requirements:

The insurance requirements set forth by the state are below. If your company meets the required coverage shown below please provide a copy of your certificate for the time being. Please do not forget that JVI will have to be an additional Certificate Holder for you to receive work.

Wind Mitigation Inspection Insurance Requirements

It has been determined that the required Insurance Coverage is as follows:

1) Workman’s Compensation (as required by the State of Florida) with Employer’s Liability Insurance with Statutory Limits, or a copy of Workman’s Compensation Exemption.

2) Comprehensive General Liability Insurance with a comprehensive form of coverage for at least $300,000.00 per occurrence with JVI as an additional Certificate Holder with a 30 day notice of expiration.

3) Comprehensive Automobile Liability Insurance with a minimum amount of $200,000.00/person, $500,000.00 /accident for bodily injury, and $20,000.00/accident for property damage with JVI as an additional Certificate Holder with a 30 day notice of expiration.

This program looks like a bigger pile of crap everyday. They should be paying 3-400 for each inspection with requirements like that.

Hi to all,

Just a fast note on the subject, the fat lady hasn't sung yet the contract that JVI is working under is ONLY for the pilot scheme.

The whole programe re-ups in November, needless to say the situtation is being watched and discussions are taking place to further NACHI members interests.

Regards

I would like to hear from anyone who has actually done any of these. How are they going? I haven't heard from JVI in weeks, although they are supposedly doing inspections in my area (Hillsborough County) now. Anyone with any info?
