Here you go again, like a grumpy old man! I will refer again to your obsession that you will only buy a house that has ongoing termite protection. Buyers buying a resale will have a home inspection and a termite inspection is part of that. If getting a mortgage, lenders require a "clear" termite report.
Yes, you are probably mostly alone in your thinking. When an inspection company can provide a clean report regarding termites, there really are NO issues concerning the sale of a property.
Going a step further, if termites are found, it is an easy fix with treatment giving a buyer peace of mind because a guarantee is always given.
