Does anyone have firsthand knowledge of a subterranean termite warranty claim (the warranty only covers subterranean not dry wood) within The Villages outside of the historic district? if every homeowner paid $150 per year that comes to over $10,000,000 annually split mostly between Deans and Massey, I would love to have a piece of that action. You can buy the same chemicals they use and do it yourself. There is very little wood in a block/stucco home, vinyl sided has more. As far as re-sale the buyer, if he chooses, could have a termite inspection just as they do up north. Many homeowners choose not to continue the warranty but that is totally up to the individual. In buying a new construction home, you also can feel safe not paying for title insurance which is expensive and TV will give you a proof of payment affidavit for all materials and labor performed on your home at no cost but you have to ask for it.
