Local knowledge

Why Kellerton homes need a local read.

Kellerton is the first Ringgold County town platted by a railroad, started after the Leon, Mount Ayr and Southwestern arrived in 1879 and incorporated in December 1881. We calibrate every Kellerton inspection to the conditions that actually drive defects here — not a generic national checklist.

Kellerton housing runs to houses from the railroad years after 1879, a peak of 693 residents in 1920 per the Census, and a mix of postwar and later homes, across the older residential blocks near the original railroad townsite and the Iowa Highway 2 corridor, on loess-mantled hills of the Southern Iowa Drift Plain in eastern Ringgold County.

Questions

Common questions.

A brick and tile factory opened in Kellerton in 1895. Should an old brick or tile-built house get a closer foundation look?
If a house is built of old brick, clay tile or block, yes. We check the mortar, look for stepped or horizontal cracks, and see whether basement walls bow or show moisture and efflorescence. We also note how the roof and gutters send water to the base of the wall, because masonry suffers when water sits there. We cannot tell from the street who made a given brick, so we describe condition rather than origin. Ringgold County is EPA Radon Zone 1, so radon testing belongs in the basement review, and a septic system calls for the inspection required 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.
