Miami-Dade County
Home Inspector in Coral Gables, FL
Coral Gables homes are beautiful and old — Mediterranean revival, barrel tile, plaster over hollow tile, and original 1920s–1940s systems hidden behind renovations. Historic district rules mean repairs get expensive fast, so knowing what's actually failing before you close matters more here than almost anywhere in Miami-Dade.
