Real Estate Termite Inspection Service @ Ermones®
Each year, abroad thousands of home inspections are performed, which are
required before a home is sold or refinanced. Its purpose is to inspect the
physical structure and the systems from the roof to the foundation. Home
inspectors search for any signs of visibly accessible evidence
of termites, woodworms, plumbing leakages, electrical wiring problems, structure
problems (cracked walls which have been plastered on top), roof problems (water
leakage or bird nesting which has affected the pipes, water tank and the roof
quality) or ants that may be present
in the structure. The current owner is usually responsible for treating any
reported infestation before the transaction can be completed.
Both seller and buyer should be aware that this report covers only what an
inspector concludes from what is visible on the date of the inspection.
Wood-destroying insects choose secretive hiding spots that are often impossible
to detect. This means that a report indicating no visible infestation is no
guarantee that these insects are totally absent from the home.
If you are the seller, your best approach is to openly acknowledge any insect
activity and damage in your house and have it addressed if necessary. This helps
ensure your home’s sale ability and avoids potential legal problems. If you are
the buyer, we recommend that you order the wood-destroying insect inspection and
accompany the inspector during the examination. In this way, you can know what
was seen and what was inaccessible and make your own decision about the home you
are considering.
