Austin

Local housing

Homes in Austin.

Austin housing runs to early-1900s and postwar homes on flat prairie, across the older neighborhoods and postwar additions, on flat prairie clay — and that mix shapes what a 11-month warranty inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in Austin

Out in Austin, many properties sit beyond city sewer and water on private septic systems and wells, so we flag those for the specialized testing they deserve. Austin sits in Mower County, in EPA Radon Zone 1, and MDH reports more than two in five Minnesota homes have radon levels that pose a significant health risk. Finished basements concentrate radon, and only a 48-hour test tells you the number. Footings here must reach the 3-1/2-foot depth Minnesota Rules 1303.1600 set for the southern frost zone, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle is what drives the settlement cracks, frost heave and ice-dam wear that Austin-area homes face.
