What is a WDO report?
A Wood Destroying Organism report is a California state-mandated document used in real estate transactions. It identifies active termite or other wood-destroying activity (Section 1) and conditions that could lead to future problems like wood-to-soil contact or excess moisture (Section 2). California requires it to be signed by a SPCB Branch 3 licensed inspector.
Section 1 vs. Section 2, what is the difference?
Section 1 findings are active infestations or existing damage that need treatment now. Section 2 findings are conducive conditions, things like leaking irrigation against the foundation or wood-to-soil contact, that don't require treatment but should be corrected to prevent future activity. Lenders typically only require Section 1 clearance.
