Why Abington homes are different
Abington: Diverse Housing, Established Value Market
Abington’s housing stock spans older brick homes, mid-century ranches and colonials, and newer construction — one of the most varied markets in Montgomery County.
| 🏛Pre-1940 Brick HomesNotable inventory of older brick homes requiring attention to original wiring, galvanized plumbing, foundation conditions, and aging mechanical systems. | ⚛Mid-Century Ranches & ColonialsDominant housing type dates to 1950s–1970s. These frequently have aging electrical panels (FPE, Zinsco), galvanized plumbing, and HVAC systems nearing end of life. | ☢Radon Zone 1Montgomery County including Abington is EPA Zone 1. Radon testing is essential at every purchase. |
| 📷Sewer Lateral ConditionOlder properties have clay and cast iron sewer laterals prone to root intrusion. A camera scope is recommended for pre-1970 homes. | 🐞Termite & WDI RiskMontgomery County’s climate and older wood-framed homes create favorable conditions for termites and WDI. | ⏱Competitive MarketAbington’s value proposition drives competitive demand. Same-week scheduling and next-day reports. |
Many Abington homes built in the 1960s and 1970s have Federal Pacific Stab-Lok or Zinsco electrical panels. These brands have well-documented histories of breaker failure. Many insurance companies will not insure homes with these panels or charge significantly higher premiums.
