The median home in the city of Fate was built in 2013, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Texas median of 1992.1 A large share of newer homes means many systems are still inside a warranty; checking that comes before any repair quote. Most of Fate's housing is recent: only 3% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 66% were built since 2010.1 Owner-occupied and rented homes in Fate are of similar age: median build years 2013 and 2014.1

Housing in Fate is mostly detached single-family: 99% of units, with 0% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. Home ownership is the norm in Fate: 92% of occupied homes are owner-occupied (63% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Fate is valued at $384,300 (ACS), above the Texas median of $283,800.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.

The Terrell Muni Ap station averages 35 nights a year at or below 32°F - a short freeze season.2,3 Heat is the governing season: about 103 days a year reach 90°F and 19 reach 100°F.2,3 A long hot season shortens the life of roofing, sealants and garage-door electronics, and it shapes what a contractor specifies. Annual precipitation is about 38 inches, with 11 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3

Cooling dominates the year: about 2,738 cooling degree days against 2,211 heating degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a cooling-led climate, attic ventilation, duct sealing and window solar gain are where the energy code concentrates. Fate sits in IECC climate zone 3A (Hot-Humid).4 Building permits in Fate are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
