Home inspection in Henriette.

Most of it is old. The village was founded as Cornell, became Henriette in 1913, was incorporated in 1920, peaked at 148 residents in 1940, and had fallen to 57 by 1950 and again by 2020. Houses here run to the early and mid-1900s with newer replacements mixed in. Foundations and sill plates, roof and chimney condition, outdated wiring and plumbing, and private wells and septic are the things to watch. Pine County is Minnesota Frost Zone I, so footing depth on additions is worth a look.

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.
