Real Estate Inspections
In the Northern Virginia real estate market, a home is often a person's biggest financial asset. Termites can quietly eat away at that value. PestNow ensures that when it's time to move, your home stands out for the right reasons.
- Fast & Reliable WDI Inspections: Most mortgage lenders require a Wood-Destroying Insect (WDI) report before they will approve a loan. If you are selling your home, a surprise termite discovery can delay your closing or even cause the buyer to walk away. PestNow provides quick, detailed inspections and the official paperwork needed to keep your real estate closing on track.
- Transferable Warranty: One of the biggest selling points for a house is a PestNow Renewable Warranty. If you have an active protection plan, you can transfer that warranty to the new owners. This gives buyers total peace of mind, knowing the home has been professionally guarded and that they won't be hit with unexpected repair bills right after moving in.
- Real Estate Expertise: Our team understands the specific requirements for Prince William County property transfers. We work directly with homeowners, real estate agents, and title companies to make sure the inspection process is smooth, honest, and easy to understand.
All Your Termite Questions
Answered
What is a WDI Report?
A WDI (Wood Destroying Insect) report is a specialized inspection required by most lenders for home purchases or refinances. It checks for termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, and wood-boring beetles. In the DMV, this report is essential for a smooth real estate closing, and PestNow provides these fast, digital reports to realtors and buyers to keep the process moving.
Does my homeowners' insurance cover termite damage?
Unfortunately, no. Standard homeowners' insurance in Virginia, Maryland, and DC almost never covers termite damage or repairs. This is why a professional warranty is so important—it acts as the protection your insurance company doesn't provide.
If I see 'swarmers' on my porch, is my house in trouble?
In Sterling, "swarm season" usually hits in the spring. Seeing winged termites outside means there is a mature colony nearby. While they might not be in your walls yet, it is a major warning sign that your home is a target. We recommend an immediate inspection if you see swarmers or discarded wings near your foundation or windowsills.
How do I know if I actually have termites or just ants?
It is very common for homeowners to confuse Termite Swarmers with Flying Ants, especially in the spring. Termites have straight antennae, equal-length wings, and a thick waist, whereas ants have elbowed antennae and "pinched" waists. PestNow provides professional inspections to give you a definitive ID so you don't pay for a termite treatment you might not need—or ignore a problem that is eating your home.
