Questions

Common questions.

What should a first-time buyer in Blakesburg expect the report to focus on?
Age and water, in that order. Blakesburg was laid out in 1852 and the stock reflects it, so the report dates the roof, electrical service, water heater, furnace and plumbing individually and says what each one has left rather than lumping them together. Then drainage: on dissected drift-plain ground the lots slope, and water arriving at a foundation from uphill causes more trouble here than rain falling on the roof. Grading, downspout discharge and sump performance get read together. Wapello County is EPA Radon Zone 1.
How long does an inspection take?
Plan on two to three hours for an average home; larger, older or multi-unit properties run longer because there is simply more to document.
