The rules that put roofs on the closing checklist

Lenders and insurers ask about the roof before money moves. Here's what they say, in their own words.

FHA loans. The appraiser must report a roof with less than two years of remaining life and make the appraisal subject to inspection by a professional roofer. HUD Handbook 4000.1
VA loans. The roof must prevent moisture and provide reasonable future utility, durability and economy of maintenance. VA Lenders Handbook, ch. 12
Florida insurance. For a roof 15 years or older, an inspection showing 5 or more years of useful life keeps an insurer from refusing coverage on age alone. Fla. Stat. 627.7011
Texas insurance. As roofs age, some companies switch to actual cash value, which pays less for an older roof. Texas Department of Insurance

Three moments it pays off

Listing side

Before you list

Run the address, set the seller's expectations on roof cost and decide whether to replace, repair or price it in. If the roof is older, line up a condition letter before photos.

Negotiation

When the repair request lands

Check a roof credit request against a real range in minutes, so the number in the negotiation isn't a guess on either side.

Buyer side

Inside the contingency window

On FHA, Florida or hail-market homes, check roof size and cost early and get a vetted local roofer out before the deadline.

A new roof is a selling point. Get the price by email.

A new asphalt shingle roof recoups about 68% of its cost at resale, and 37% of Realtors already advise sellers to replace roofing before listing.

What you get back

Roof size and pitch

Surface area, squares and pitch for the main roof, from aerial data for the exact address.

A replacement range

A low and high price adjusted for the region, with every input listed, ready to walk a client through.

A vetted roofer when you need one

For an inspection, a repair quote or a written condition letter. Whether a lender or carrier accepts a letter depends on their own rules and forms.

One coordinator, no phone tree

We call you first and keep you posted. We contact your client only if you ask us to.

Is the roof check free for agents?

Yes. The roof size and replacement range are free. If you need an inspection or a written condition letter, the roofer tells you about any fee before the visit.

Do you pay referral fees?

No. We don't pay or accept referral fees for agent requests.

Will you contact my client?

We contact you first. We only call your client if you ask us to, and only at the number you give us.

How soon does a roofer get out?

It depends on the partner roofer's schedule near the property. We give you a time on the first call, so you plan around inspections and closing dates.

Which addresses work?

Any US address with a standard residential roof. If we can't measure a roof from above, you still get a rough range based on the home's size.

What does the range include?

A full tear-off of one layer and replacement with the material you pick: underlayment, flashing, drip edge, ridge cap, disposal and the permit, adjusted for the roof's pitch, height and region. Rotten decking is priced per sheet only if a roofer finds it.
