Frequently Asked Questions
What is an escrow termite inspection?
An escrow termite inspection is a specialized evaluation required during a real estate transaction to ensure a property is free of active wood-destroying pests. Our licensed inspectors provide a comprehensive Wood-Destroying Pests and Organisms (WDO) report detailing any active infestations (Section 1) or potential future threats (Section 2) to keep your home sale moving smoothly.
What is a Section 1 termite clearance?
A Section 1 termite clearance is a formal certification stating that a property is free of active termite infestations and that any resulting damage has been repaired. This clearance letter is often required by lenders and buyers before a real estate transaction can officially close.
How much does a Section 1 termite clearance cost?
The cost for a Section 1 clearance depends on whether active termites are found and the extent of the wood repairs needed. However, to make the real estate transaction as seamless as possible, Xtermite bills the cost of the treatment and repairs directly to the escrow company, meaning no out-of-pocket costs upfront for the seller.
How fast can I get my termite clearance letter?
