Local knowledge

Why Ida Grove homes need a local read.

Ida Grove is the Ida County seat where Odebolt Creek meets the Maple River, a railroad town of 1880s courthouse-era homes.

Ida Grove housing runs to railroad-era homes from the town's 1877-78 move to the tracks, with early-1900s frame houses, postwar ranches and later infill, across the blocks around the 1883 Ida County Courthouse, the neighborhoods laid out after the town moved to the railroad, and the Odebolt Creek and Maple River corridors, on a loess-covered rolling plain drained by the Maple River, at the point where Odebolt Creek joins it.

Questions

Common questions.

Does Ida Grove's castle theme mean the houses are unusual?
Mostly not. The castle look, which grew out of Byron Godbersen and Midwest Industries in the 1970s, shows up in commercial and public buildings, while the housing is ordinary frame construction from the railroad years onward. The town moved to the tracks when the Chicago and North Western arrived in October 1877, and the courthouse dates to 1883, so plenty of houses are more than a century old. We date the wiring, plumbing and roof, check foundations and basement walls near Odebolt Creek and the Maple River for moisture, and add a radon test, since Ida 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.
