About Mark Cornelius

Based in Apollo Beach, Mark Cornelius is licensed by the Florida DBPR as a home inspector under license HI9500. Mark Cornelius's Florida home inspector license was first issued in March 2016, giving more than 10 years as a licensed Florida home inspector.

Licensed home inspectors in Florida commonly perform the two insurance inspections homeowners are asked for most: the wind mitigation report (form OIR-B1-1802), which can lower the wind portion of a premium, and the 4-point inspection of roof, electrical, plumbing and HVAC. Confirm with Mark that the required hurricane mitigation training is complete before booking a wind mitigation report.

Apollo Beach is a canal-front community on the south shore of Tampa Bay, with many newer homes and high wind exposure near the water. 11 other licensed inspectors are also based in Apollo Beach.

Frequently asked questions

Is Mark Cornelius a licensed home inspector in Florida?

Yes. As of our October 2026 DBPR data, license HI9500 is current and active and expires July 31, 2028; it was originally issued March 11, 2016. Search the number on the DBPR license lookup to confirm before you book.

Can Mark sign a wind mitigation form (OIR-B1-1802) for my Apollo Beach home?

Florida allows licensed home inspectors to sign the Uniform Mitigation Verification form if they have completed the required hurricane mitigation training. Ask Mark to confirm, and ask for photos of each item (roof deck nails, roof-to-wall connections, opening protection) so your insurer can verify the credits.

How much does a wind mitigation or 4-point inspection cost in Apollo Beach?

Published Tampa Bay prices we checked in October 2026 were $115–$130 for a wind mitigation report, $120–$140 for a 4-point and $175–$220 for both in one visit. Larger homes, two-story roofs and travel can cost more, so ask Mark for a written price. See our wind mitigation cost guide.

How do I contact Mark Cornelius?

This is a free listing, so we don't show a phone number, email or street address. Use the request form on this page and we'll pass your request along, or compare the 12 licensed inspectors based in Apollo Beach.

Do I need a 4-point inspection, a wind mitigation inspection, or both?

It depends on your insurer and the age of your home. Insurers typically require a 4-point on older homes and use a wind mitigation report to apply discounts on any home. Booking both in one visit usually costs less than two separate trips. See the 4-point guide.

About these listings. Inspectors are listed from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) home inspector licensee file, downloaded October 2026. We include only licenses shown as current and active. A DBPR license does not by itself confirm that an inspector has completed the hurricane mitigation training required to sign form OIR-B1-1802, so confirm that, and verify the license on myfloridalicense.com, before you book.

Privacy. Many home inspectors use their home address on their license, so free listings show only the city and county: no street address, ZIP code, phone number or email. Inspectors can claim their listingto add business contact details, or ask us to correct or remove it. FL Storm Pros is not affiliated with DBPR or any insurer.
