For the last 10 years, the major carriers have been losing lot of money on their homeowner’s policies. Natural disaster such as floods and hurricanes and tornados have devasted the home insurance industry. Every now and then when a policy comes up for renewal, they will send an inspector out just to do a drive-by and to snap a picture to see if it is a risk that they want to continue to insure. You didn’t say want city in Texas you live in, however if you live in any of the flood ravaged areas, major carriers are looking to get off of risk in order to become more profitable. More than likely, the outside condition of your overgrown shrubs prompted the underwriter to ask for an inside inspection. They will be looking for upkeep, signs of water damage, maintanence, flooring damage, leaks around window, doors and in the attic, water heater condition, furnace condition and etc. The inspection may be followed by a letter requesting that you repair some items to maintain your insurance. If your home is in good condition, you have nothing to fear. If you have some obvious necessary repairs, try to have them done before the inspection. Remember, to always ask for ID from the inspector. When he calls to make the appointment, ask what in particular will he need to see. Basically it is the insurance companies way of trying to trim expenses.
