Did you know that in 2021, more homes were sold in Iowa, than any other year? Last year’s housing market set records not only in Iowa but across the United States. Homes were in high demand but low supply and 2022 shows no slowing down.

Generally, the homebuyers are joined by the superintendent of the project and the warranty manager. The goal of the walk-through is to educate the new homeowner on certain important features of their home. Room by room, the group will explore features and talk about the maintenance and operation of everything from ceiling fans to irrigation to the furnace.
