Tip of the day – Termite inspection on VA loans

 

A Wood destroying insect inspection is required by VA if the property is located in an area where the probability of termite infestation is "very heavy" or "moderate to heavy" according to the Termite Infestation Probability Map published in The Council of American Building Officials (CABO) One and Two Family Dwelling Code.   This applies to both purchase and refinance transactions.  The only exception is on IRRRL trsansactions, which do not require an inspection.

 

Note:  If there is a question about the location of an infestation probability boundary line in relation to the subject property, contact the VA office of jurisdiction to determine if this requirement is applicable.

 

 

 

Thank You!
