Although a pest inspection is not required except for government loans, it is a good idea to get one for the peace of mind knowing that your new home is not being damaged by termites or other wood destroying insects.If time allows, make sure to get all the inspections that will put your mine to ease. There is nothing wrong with asking for inspections that will give you peace of mind when buying your new home.
There is nothing worse than moving into a home and finding out your home is infested with bugs, mice, rats or any other unwanted guests. Problems that arise with these unwanted guests are often not apparent on the surface and thus could cost you thousands of dollars down the road.
A pest inspection is like buying insurance. You pay for it up front so that there is no risk of having to pay even more down the road.
Be prepared to pay for the pest inspection out of your own pocket.
