| The law
does not require that a structural pest control inspection
be performed prior to transfer of any real property. However,
if required by the contract or by the lender, the seller
or the seller’s agent must deliver to the buyer
a copy of a report and written certification, prepared
by a registered structural pest control company, regarding
the presence or absence of wood-destroying organisms.
Delivery must occur before transfer of title.
If more than one real estate broker is acting as the
seller’s agent, the broker who obtained the offer
is responsible for delivery, in person or by mail, of
the report unless the seller directs otherwise in writing.
The real estate broker responsible for delivery must
retain for three years a record of the actions taken
to effect delivery.
(Civil Code Section 1099; Business
and Professions Code Sections 8519 et seq. and 10148;
Commissioner’s Regulation 2905)
