Homes and buildings in Franklinton
About 69% of homes in Franklinton were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1974. Buildings that age often still have older single-pane glass and worn aluminum frames, so loose panes, failing seals and tired door hardware come up a lot. More homes here went up in the 1970s than in any other period.
Housing is a mix, with about 70% single-family houses and 2% in apartment buildings. Around 10% are mobile homes, whose windows and doors often use different frames and sizes. More than half of the homes here are rented, so we also work with landlords and property managers.
