Advice for how to proceed for an investor new to Baltimore City and the property has termites? Walk away? Ask seller to pay for some kind of warranty against re-investation? Thanks for any and all suggestions and stories!

Termites like many other issues are just another cost. 

  • You need to kill any active termite infestation 
  • You need to asses the damage already done.

I am not afraid of termites and look at it as a strong negotiating point.
