Buying a new home is one of the success milestones for many adults. It is probably one of the biggest financial investments we would make in our life. Because of that, we would want to make sure that the house we are about to purchase is worth every penny.

As a potential buyer of a home, one of the things you can do to ensure that your dream house is indeed one, and not a nightmare, is through a pre-purchase inspection. Having the property inspected before closing the deal can save you a lot of money and stress in the future.

There are different kinds of pre-purchase inspections. One of the most in-demand kinds of inspection is checking for pests, more specifically - termites. 

Termites are known to cause immense damage to millions of houses all over the world. And the worst part about having termites at home is that you wouldn't know that they are present until you see damages around your house. Therefore, getting a pre-purchase inspection for pests, such as termites, is a must.


​
Here are the following benefits of a pre-purchase termite inspection:


1. Informs you of termite problems of the property

Buying a new house requires you to get to know every inch of the property, including the presence of termites. Once you know about the termite problems and its extent, you are now able to take measures to solve them. It will also give you a good idea of how much money you will need to get rid of the infestation.


2. Allows you to negotiate

If the pre-purchase termite inspection reveals that there is a termite, infestation, it now gives you the upper hand in the negotiations. You can now gauge whether the price of the property is still worth, given the termite problems. Because of this, you can negotiate the property to a lower price to offset the potential damage these termites will cost you in the future.


3. Avoids regret in the future

How can you fully enjoy a house that you spend good money to pay for when you know that there is a termite infestation going on beneath your walls? Knowing the termite situation of a house can help you make the right decision - whether to negotiate to lower price or to simply look for a new one. You would not want to end up spending more money having the termites exterminated, or worse, having to sell the house to look for a different one. Not only will it drain you financially, but it can also cause you unnecessary stress.

A pre-purchase termite inspection gives you that peace of mind knowing that your new house is a safe place for your family to live in.


4. Reveals potential problems of the property

A pre-purchase termite inspection will not only tell you about the presence of termites in the house but also the possibility of having an infestation in the future.

An inspection will point out potential causes of termite infestation in the future, such as a specific structure or a type of material used in construction. Meanwhile, you can decide if these potential termite problems are worth fixing or not.


In the end, a pre-purchase termite inspection allows you to make an informed decision. As a buyer, you have every right to know about every nook and cranny of the potential property that you are eyeing. A termite inspection will help you ensure that you get your dream house, minus the termites.
