For years only the VA required Termite Inspections, now the FHA wants them too. Whats the deal?
A. True, the FHA is requiring that a Termite Inspection be completed on all FHA funded homes over two years old. Over the years the FHA has seen an increase in termite infestations nationwide. In many FHA regions Termite Inspections have been required for years. Only recently has the FHA found that the desert Southwest, including Las Vegas, has increased termite activity. The spread of the Formosan termite in other areas has only increased their concern.
