Who Should Test their Home for Radon?
According to the Minnesota Department of Health and the Environmental Protection Agency, everyone should test their home for radon. Testing your home is the only way to know what the radon levels are. Any home may have a radon problem. This means new and old homes, well sealed and drafty homes, and homes with or without basements. People getting ready to sell their home should have it tested before putting it on the market. Many buyers are requiring radon testing to be done at the time of inspection. If the radon levels are known, and they have been lowered before the house is listed, then it can make the buying and selling process flow much easier. In today’s slowing real estate market, you want to make your house as appealing as possible to potential buyers. Your real estate agent may even advertise the fact that your home has low radon levels as a possible selling point. Home buyers should have a radon test done as part of the inspection process on any home they are looking at buyin
