Seasonal homes left empty in winter need regular checks for frozen pipes, heating failures and ice on roofs and walkways. Ask how the house will be opened and closed each season, who monitors it during storms and how arrivals are prepared when snow is still on the ground.
Des Moines is the largest insurance employment centre in the US after Hartford and the headquarters of Principal Financial Group and Nationwide's affiliates.
