Local housing

Homes in Apple Valley.

Apple Valley housing runs to 1980s-1990s family homes, across the neighborhoods around the parks and lakes, on rolling, wooded sites — and that mix shapes what a buyer's inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in Apple Valley

If you are buying in Apple Valley, expect the lot itself to be part of the inspection. Walkouts, lookouts and sloped yards can push runoff toward a foundation when the grade or gutters slip, so we study the ground before we study the interior. Then we move through roof, furnace, water heater and window seals, which on houses from the 1980s and 1990s are reaching replacement age.

Questions

Common questions.

When should I schedule it?
As soon as your offer is accepted, so the finished report lands inside your inspection window with room left to respond.
Who do you work for?
You, every time. We are hired by the buyer, never the seller, and the report reflects only what we observed on site.
Do the rolling lots in Apple Valley cause drainage problems?
They can, if the grading or gutters are not doing their job. On a sloped lot, water runs toward the lowest point, and if that is the foundation, you see moisture in the basement. How the ground slopes near the house, where downspouts discharge, whether window wells are clear and whether a sump is present are what matter. These are usually inexpensive to correct once you know the source.
Do you inspect Apple Valley homes?
Yes — late-century homes here commonly need attention to aging water heaters, HVAC and decks.
