Check Out The Kankakee County River Valley Area!  The Greater Kankakee River Valley area was linked to a nationwide network of super highways in the 1960s when Interstate 57 connected it from north to south! That highway, combined with the county's central location just an hour south of Chicago's Loop, has made possible the emergence of this area as a major distribution complex for retail, food, and industrial products. The excellent transportation network in this area has favorable impacts upon retail and service businesses, housing availability and affordability, and job opportunities! Over the past decade, the strongest population growth has registered in the Bourbonnais and Manteno areas. This is a result of over $50 million dollars being invested in new or remodeled facilities to house food-related businesses. Manteno is also the location of the retail products distribution centers for both Sears & K-mart stores. Surrounded by the Kankakee River, Kankakee County offers first-class recreational opportunities. Whether it's golf, hiking, fishing/canoeing, or just enjoying some of the "great outdoors" at the 2,800 acre Kankakee River State Park... we have something for everyone to enjoy!

Home Inspections >About Termites Most real estate offers require an inspection by a licensed exterminator to determine that the house doesn't have termites or other wood boring insects. The inspector will look for two signs in deciding whether or not to pass a house--an active termite infestation and evidence of a past infestation.
If your house does not pass the termite inspection, get a list of qualified exterminators from your real estate agent. Find out what treatment options they offer and what they charge for the service. Exterminators are usually quite competitive. If your home was treated for a past infestation, the company which performed the extermination may be willing to re-certify your home without a second treatment. Arrange for the termite inspection as early as possible, so you will have time to determine the best way to get rid of them, if they are found.
