What we know about this market
Lorain has no point-of-sale inspection requirement for a home sale. The city's building department page covers construction and code-enforcement inspections, and separately requires vacant properties to register for $125 a year and rental units to carry a rental dwelling license.
The city income tax is 2.5 percent, effective since January 1, 2013, with a 2.0 percent credit for tax already paid to another municipality.
Lorain grew up around steel and shipbuilding: the American Ship Building Company ran a yard here from 1898 until it closed in December 1983, and the steel mill traces back to the Johnson Steel Street Rail Company, built on the Black River in 1895.
The city is 55.8 percent owner-occupied, per the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, spread across three ZIP codes: 44052, 44053 and 44055. Rental units in the city need a rental dwelling license, which matters if the house you are selling has tenants in it.
