Homebuyers Guide to Pest Inspections

Posted On: 01/30/2024

When you're about to close on your dream home there is one question that will inevitably pop into your head: What if something is lurking below the surface that we didn't see?

Termites, a roach infestation, and even rats or mice could potentially be hiding somewhere in your new home. Buying a new home is an exciting time for anyone. You dream of the memories you will create with loved ones in this new space that you worked hard for. You don't want to imagine having to dump thousands of dollars into your new home because of a termite infestation but it happens. And while we want to hope that the sellers would disclose this information if there was an infestation, sometimes they are unaware.

Termite Inspections

Termites can live inside the walls of your home unnoticed for years, causing major structural damage. When purchasing a new home, it is important that you hire a specialist to do a full termite inspection before your closing. A home inspector will check out the plumbing and electrical but most do not check for termites. If your new home does have a termite infestation, it can cost you thousands of dollars to fix. Hiring a termite inspector that can determine the extent of the damage prior to closing can give you an estimate to provide to the sellers. This cost can be worked into your closing or you can have the sellers fix the problem prior to closing in order to save you the hassle and the cost.

Rodent Inspections

Imagine moving into your new home and finding out later on that there are rodents living in the attic? The thought of your home being infested with mice or rats is enough to make anyone want to move out and stay in a hotel. A professional inspection will look for rodent feces, structural damage, and other signs of an infestation. Your seller will be responsible for having an exterminator come in and remove the pests and repair any damages.

Pest Inspections – Interior and Exterior

Whether it is cockroaches or ants that are infesting your home, you will want them gone. Your seller should be responsible for having the bugs removed from the home and the exterior walls sealed to ensure they do not return. Outside of your home a bee or wasp infestation could make the outside less enjoyable. Have an inspection done to ensure that your home is livable and enjoyable both inside and out.
