Looking to buy a house near a bush area. Did a pest inspection and the report says that there was INACTIVE termite evidence and a roof rafter has been replaced due to previous termite damage (10 years ago). I spoke to the inspector and he says that there are no current termite damage that he can see.
Normally if there have been termite damage then we will run with no second thoughts. In this case however, the damage have been fixed.
Is this house considered "equal" to a house with no previous termite activity since all damage have been fixed? Or is this house still considered inferior?
Can the inspector missed the damages in other timbers since there is no way anyone can inspect every timber in a house?
