What this means for your home
With about 125,000 residents and roughly 72% of homes owner-occupied, Broken Arrow has many owners with a large asset tied to the ground beneath it. Tulsa County's soil rates High for shrink-swell, so seasonal movement is a real possibility.
The city builds to the 2018 residential code as it amends it. A code does not make any single lot immune to clay movement, so watch for sticking doors and cracks at window corners.
If you find them, take dated photos and measure the cracks before you call.
