Horsham Township
Horsham Township, incorporated in 1717, is one of the oldest original municipalities in Montgomery County. The township contains two major drainage basins which are part of the Delaware River System. These basins determine where the township's open space and conservation areas are located. Today, the township is home to office complexes and corporate centers, as well as quality residential neighborhoods. Plenty of community-oriented shopping facilities are located in the township. The township also hosts a number of quality golf courses. It should be noted that some businesses and homes can be located in Horsham Township, but have a Hatboro or other nearby mailing address.  PUBLIC SERVICES: The east and central portions of the township, which contain many large office buildings, are serviced by public water and sewer facilities. A municipal sewage treatment plant is expected to expand and double its capacity. A full-time police force serves the township. Fire protection is provided by volunteer companies. Residential trash disposal is arranged by private contractors.
RECREATION: A township Parks Commission and a part-time director assist in running various programs. Little League programs are run by a private organization. For more information on what is available, please call 215-643-3131.
PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION: SEPTA bus Route 55 connects the eastern portion of the township to Lower Bucks County, Eastern Montgomery County, and Philadelphia.
SHOPPING: Community and specialty shopping and small businesses are located throughout the township. The nearest major shopping malls are the Montgomery Mall and the Willow Grove Park Mall.

First Time Buyers >A Realistic Evaluation
Your real estate agent's job is to find you the perfect home, in the right location, with all the amenities you want--and at the right price. It is the home inspector's job to find any skeletons in the closet -- or in the plumbing, wiring, roof, basement and beams.
The inspector won't pass or fail a home based on what he or she finds, but will go over the house thoroughly to help you understand the condition of the property you are buying. If there are any serious problems, your inspector can give you a realistic idea of how much the repairs will cost. If there are material defects that were not reflected in the asking price, you will have the opportunity to re-open negotiations with your sellers before you commit to the purchase. A good inspector will also explain the operation of the basic emergency systems such as the main water cut off valve and the circuit breaker box, and will go over items that will need routine maintenance.
If you are buying a house, we recommend that you make a professional home inspector part of your home purchase team.
