Questions

Common questions.

Who was Mayme Ousley?
She was born in Edgar Springs and was the first woman elected mayor of a town in Missouri.
Does Missouri license home inspectors?
No. Missouri has no statewide home inspector license or board, and bills to create one have been introduced in the legislature without becoming law. Buyers should ask any inspector about experience, training, insurance and professional association membership. Some cities or counties may have local business requirements.
Why do crawlspaces and basements matter in Missouri houses?
EPA notes that crawl spaces with high humidity are common sites of hidden mold growth, especially over bare soil. Missouri summers are humid, so foundation moisture is a frequent buyer concern. EPA also advises grading the ground away from the foundation so it does not stay wet.
