What to check before buying

Expansive clay is documented in parts of Santa Clara, including the Heights and South Hills. Conditions vary by lot.

  • Ask for the lot’s soil report and the foundation preparation records.
  • Check how roof runoff and irrigation are kept away from the foundation.
  • For bluff or hillside lots, ask about slope studies and drainage history.

These are questions to investigate, not findings about an individual home.
