Termite reports are comprised of two sections: one that addresses existing damage and one that identifies areas that seem susceptible to future infestations. The first section typically covers any current or past signs of infestation, including dry rot and structural damage. The second section focuses on immediate risks and suggests measures that can be taken to correct them. Potential risks include stacks of firewood, fallen trees and areas with high moisture content.
It is highly advisable to involve a termite inspector prior to purchasing any real estate. Existing damage and infestations are the responsibility of the selling party. Any preventive measures undertaken are the responsibility of the buyer. It is also possible to buy termite bonds from an inspector, arranging for annual inspections as a measure of prevention.
