Nashville, Murfreesboro and Mt. Juliet TN
When purchasing a new home, most buyers may assume a termite inspection is not necessary. Exactly the opposite of that is true. Although the structure of a home may pass a regular home inspection, what about a termite inspection? Even when purchasing a new home, a termite inspection could help save you thousands of dollars in repairs down the road.
According to the National Pest Management Association, termites cost homeowners $5 billion in damage annually. It makes sense to order a termite inspection when purchasing an older home, but what about a new home? Even new homes can have a termite problem. How unfortunate it would be to purchase a new home only to discover a termite infestation after you have made your investment. Termites are tiny insects that are not easily discovered because they are often hidden within the wooden structure of a home. New homes could become exposed to termites if proper measures were not taken during the building process. If any wood was left exposed, meaning without proper coating or treatment, then rot will begin to settle into the wood. Once the wood becomes rotten, termites migrate to the wood, since consuming rotten wood is what makes a termite colony thrive. Termites can eat you out of house and home, but a termite inspection can put your mind at ease in knowing your home is free of termites.
If costly repairs are not convincing enough to get a termite inspection, what about safety concerns? As termites begin to eat away at the wooden structure of your home, the home’s safety becomes a concern. The damage the termites cause may be unseen for a long time until eventually the structure of the home begins to become affected. Repairs due to termite damage could cost you thousands of dollars and compromise the safety of your home. A termite inspection could help save you from this heartache!
When purchasing your dream home, even if it is a new home, do not skip a termite inspection. You could be risking more than just money, but the safety of you and your family.
