Loans from the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) typically require a WDI (Wood-Destroying Insect) Inspection, along with a report completed on the industry-standard NPMA-33 form. Some state and federal loan programs may also require WDI inspections. For specific requirements, particularly for VA home loans in Massachusetts, it’s best to check with your lender or local municipality.
Wood-destroying insect (WDI) inspections are essential for identifying potential termite or pest damage that could compromise the structural integrity of a home. For certain types of home loans, such as those backed by the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA), a WDI inspection is a mandatory step in the loan approval process. At MKC Associates, we provide reliable inspections and reports to meet these requirements, including the industry-standard NPMA-33 form.
VA loans aim to provide veterans with secure and affordable homeownership opportunities, which includes ensuring the property is free from wood-destroying insects. The VA requires a WDI inspection to protect the homebuyer from potentially costly structural repairs. This inspection evaluates the presence of termites, carpenter ants, or other wood-destroying organisms that can damage a property over time.
In addition to VA loans, some state and federal loan programs may also require WDI inspections, particularly in regions like Massachusetts where termites and other pests are common. It’s important to consult with your lender or local municipality to determine whether this inspection is necessary for your loan type.
At MKC Associates, we specialize in thorough WDI inspections and provide detailed NPMA-33 reports to meet lender requirements. Contact us today to schedule a WDI inspection for your home loan or to learn more about our services in Massachusetts.
