Homes and buildings in DeForest
Most of DeForest is fairly new: only about 23% of homes were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1992. With newer double-pane windows, the usual problems are a failed seal, cracked glass or a sliding door that has worn through its rollers. More homes here went up in the 1980s than in any other period. That makes its housing newer than about 84% of Wisconsin towns its size.
Housing is a mix, with about 61% single-family houses and 13% in apartment buildings. About 76% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
