Since many areas of Elmore and Autauga Counties are rural, potential homeowners should ask about water supplies, sewage disposal and garbage service. Many potential home buyers choose particular neighborhoods because they lie within certain school districts. Because of restrictions put into force several years ago, members of the Realtors association are prevented from recommending or offering evaluations of school districts. Information about schools must be obtained from residents of the area. Likewise, association members may not discuss with their clients the exact square footage of homes for sale.
Regulations permit agents to present only estimates of the available square footage.
When you are shopping for a house in any area, don't refrain from asking any question that comes to mind. The best way to avoid surprises later on, is to be as informed as possible before you buy a home.
