What Is a CDAIR?
The Catastrophic Disaster Area Inspection Report is an independent property inspection designed to document the physical condition of real estate in federally declared disaster zones.
Our CDAIR service includes a thorough visual assessment - either exterior only or both exterior and interior - with documentation designed to:
Verify property address and condition
Detect damage or structural concerns
Identify delays or risks related to closing
Satisfy lender or investor post-disaster verification requirements
What's Included in a CDAIR?
Interior and/or exterior photos
Address verification
Street view photos
Neighborhood condition documentation
Certified inspection report for legal or financial use
Fast 2–3 day turnaround (upon property access)
Service available throughout Leon and Wakulla Counties
When Is a CDAIR Needed?
You may need a CDAIR if:
Your property is in a FEMA-declared disaster zone
A lender or insurer is requesting verification before disbursement
You're in the middle of a real estate closing that could be delayed by storm activity
You want to document the property's condition immediately following a storm for legal, resale, or repair purposes
Whether you're a homeowner, real estate investor, lender, or legal professional, a CDAIR gives you the proof you need to make smart post-disaster decisions.

Kevin, your company's slogan should be "One Call That's All"! Unlike some of your competitors, you didn't wave me aside just because I didn't call from a "big lender", and I really respect that. The turn around time exceeded my expectations and you accomplished in just a few days what other companies told me should more than a week or so. I also want to thank you for your prompt communication responses and attention to detail. The time you took to listen to my concerns and answer all of my questions certainly did not go unnoticed. You should be congratulated on your professionalism and dedication to serving our community. I will gladly recommend your company at every opportunity!

Appraisal was scheduled in a timely manner and carried out professionally. Questions were answered in language I could understand clearly. Although there was a slight delay in receiving the results it in no way effected the outcome. Choosing Premier Appraisal Services resulted in a completely satisfying experience.

The power of an appraisal is often underrated. Appraisals are the "glue" that hold a real estate transaction together. The service and detail that was provided by Premier Appraisal is second to none. Kevin and his staff definitely go the extra mile paying attention to the detail. I will use them for all of my real estate ventures!!
