Local knowledge

Why Gravity homes need a local read.

Gravity is a small Taylor County town on the Middle Fork One Hundred and Two River, surveyed in 1881 as the railroad came through and incorporated in 1883. We calibrate every Gravity inspection to the conditions that actually drive defects here — not a generic national checklist.

Gravity housing runs to houses from the railroad years after 1881, early-1900s homes from the 1900 peak of 549 residents, postwar houses and a few newer builds, across the compact townsite of about 0.34 square miles, the Middle Fork One Hundred and Two River corridor and the farm ground around town, on loess-mantled hills of the Southern Iowa Drift Plain, along the Middle Fork One Hundred and Two River in Taylor County.

Questions

Common questions.

Gravity peaked at 549 residents in 1900 and is much smaller now. What should I watch for in older houses?
Gravity was surveyed in 1881 and incorporated in 1883, and its oldest houses are well over a century old. With about 150 residents today, some homes may have gone without regular upkeep. We look at roofs, foundation and sill condition, wiring and panel age, plumbing, and moisture in the basement or crawl space. Near the Middle Fork One Hundred and Two River we also review grade and drainage. Ask what has been updated and when. Taylor County is EPA Radon Zone 1, and a septic system calls for a transfer inspection under Iowa Code 455B.172.
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.
