Radon test inspection - Anyone know of this and is it necessary?
Hey guys I'm buying a property in mid coast Maine. I currently own a property there which I've had for 15 years, but this time around the inspector is asking if I want to do a Randon air and water test. I had no idea what he was talking about. I spoke with my contractor who said Radon is becoming more apparent in the region and according to the pamphlet the inspector sent it can cause cancer.
Does anyone have experience with this? If there is Radon in the air at the, should I back out of the deal or is this fixable? And if so, does anyone know how much it would cost to fix this? Having this in it's history would I need to disclose this in the future and could this possibly affect he resale value down the road?
Thanks for you!
