Before you make an offer
Portions of Kingsville sit near Naval Air Station Kingsville training flight paths, so ask whether an address falls within an airport noise or flight-path disclosure zone. On older homes near central Kleberg Avenue, check whether local historic district guidelines apply and have older plumbing, wiring and foundations inspected. Because Kleberg County is a coastal windstorm county, ask for windstorm certificates (WPI-8) on roofs, windows and structural additions.
Windstorm insurance and flood zones vary by property; Marci can point you to the right specialist. This isn't insurance or legal advice.
