Built Before the Codes That Protect You
Lutz's lake homes on Crenshaw Lake, Lake Keen and Lake Fern date from the 1970s–1980s with original windows and big water-facing sliders. Cheval, Van Dyke Farms and Calusa Trace are 1990s–2000s homes with non-impact builder windows and roofs now 20–30 years old.
- 24/7 protection — no shutters to hang, no plywood panic
- Insurance credits — FL Stat. 627.0629 requires insurers to discount protected homes — documented reductions of 30% or more, some 50%+
- Lower energy bills — impact glass insulates against Lutz summers
- Up to $500 sales-tax refund — Florida's HB 7031E, for homesteaded homes

What Makes Lutz Different
Lutz's lakefront homes have the large sliders and picture windows that are both the most exposed and the most valuable to protect, while Cheval, Van Dyke Farms and Calusa Trace homes are larger 1990s footprints with 15–25 standard non-impact openings. In both cases the wind-mitigation report currently shows no opening protection, and a full Miami-Dade rated impact package is the largest credit these homes can earn. Gated Lutz communities require architectural review; we submit it.
Permits & jurisdiction
Lutz is unincorporated; Hillsborough County Development Services issues most permits, Pasco County for the northern parcels, and the $0-down county financing applies in both.
Wind & insurance exposure
Inland at roughly 140 mph design wind. Lakefront lots face open-water wind exposure and some carry flood-zone mapping.

What Lutz Homeowners Ask
Part of Lutz is in Pasco County. Does the financing still work?
Yes. Both unincorporated Hillsborough and unincorporated Pasco participate in the $0-down program. We identify which county your parcel is in and pull the permit accordingly.
Does the $0-down program work in Lutz?
Yes. Lutz is unincorporated Hillsborough County — and the few Lutz-addressed parcels in Pasco County participate too — so qualified homes can finance impact windows, doors and roofs at $0 down through the county-approved program.
Will impact windows lower my insurance in Lutz?
In most cases, yes — Florida law requires insurers to credit wind-mitigation features, and the wind portion is a large share of most Lutz premiums. The key rule: every opening must be protected to capture the full credit. Florida homeowners who completed these upgrades have seen premiums drop 30% or more, some by 50%+ — ask to see the before-and-after declaration pages at your evaluation. Homeowner results →
