When you decide to purchase a home and you need to get a mortgage, you may be required to get a termite clearance letter. This letter is going to show that there was a pest control company who came to the property and completed a termite inspection. It should also state that the professional did not find any damage or infestation signs at that time. In many cases, this is a lender requirement, depending on the region you live in and the type of loan you decide to get.

For example, any government-backed loans, like the VA loans and FHA loans, will require that you get a termite inspection before you close. If you do not get the inspection done, then you will not be able to get the mortgage for the property. These loans will require you to get a Wood Destroying Insect inspection, also known as a termite inspection, to make sure there isn’t extensive amount of damage to the property that you need to get taken care of before moving in.

Since many private lenders are going to take guidance from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which is the organization in charge of the FHA loans, they can often ask for you to get the termite inspection as well. It is not a requirement for the mortgage companies to do this though, so it is possible to find some that will not ask you to get the inspection. It is more common in areas that have higher levels of termite activities that the lender will ask you to get a report.

When this inspection is required, you need to work with a professional who knows how to look for the signs and can provide a good treatment plan at the same time. They will often look for any insect that is going to destroy wood around the property, including carpenter ants, carpenter bees, beetles, and termites to name a few.
