Facts For Recent Home Owners

If your home is less than 10 years old, it's important to have your home moisture tested before the warranty from the builder runs out. Water intrusion problems can occur even if you don't see or smell any symptoms of moisture. The licensed, certified inspectors at CMT will provide you with a detailed report describing the location and severity of the moisture problem and related damages. The CMT experts will also help you with the steps needed to file a claim with the homebuilder (as provided under Mn. Statute § 327A) and provide expert assistance to you along the way.

Facts for Home Sellers

If you are selling your home, failing to address a moisture problem before putting your home on the market can cause delays in the sale of your property and may lead to expensive repairs required of you by the homebuyer. At CMT, we believe that it's best to discover and address any potential problems before you put your house up for sale. This allows you to evaluate, plan, and remediate the situation according to your schedule and budget, and may protect you, the seller, from a potentially expensive and lengthy lawsuit from a homebuyer.

Facts for Home Buyers

If you are buying a home—whether the home is brand new or 50 years old—make sure you verify that the home is free from moisture problems that could cost you thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars to repair or could cause a lengthy and costly litigation with the home seller or builder.
