Local housing

Austin housing runs to early-1900s and postwar homes on flat prairie, across the older neighborhoods and postwar additions, on flat prairie clay — and that mix shapes what a residential inspection here needs to find.

Local conditions in Austin

Residential inspections in Austin cover everything from roof to foundation, and the age of each house shapes what to look for. Austin Acres was built in the 1930s with federal homestead funding, and older houses of that vintage often come with original wiring, older plumbing materials and aging furnaces. Austin's tornado history, including an EF2 in June 2009 across its north side, makes roof coverings, flashing and attic framing worth a careful look. Findings are easiest to use in a clear report that shows which items matter most.

Questions

Common questions.

What counts as a residential inspection?
Any owner-occupied or rental dwelling — single-family homes, townhomes, condos, duplexes and small multi-family up to four units. The full home inspection is the core, and radon, sewer scope, thermal imaging and the rest are available as add-ons when the property calls for them.
Is residential really most of your work?
Yes — roughly 95 percent of Closer Look inspections are residential. It is what we are built around, from century-old capital-city homes to brand-new metro subdivisions.
Which services can be added to a residential inspection?
Any of them: full home, buyer's, pre-listing, radon, sewer scope, thermal imaging, mold and moisture, foundation, roof, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, new-construction, 11-month warranty, well-water and older-home inspections. Specialty services are available as add-ons.
What is common in Austin homes?
Older housing with original services and clay sewer laterals, plus the basement moisture that flat, slow-draining prairie clay tends to produce.
