Radon is one of the most fixable things an inspector can find.
The EPA says homes with radon problems that were fixed have still sold, and that the added protection can help. A system is a normal home repair, and the EPA says most homes can be fixed for about the cost of other common repairs (EPA Home Buyer's and Seller's Guide). Our job is to move quickly and keep the paperwork clean.
If you are selling
Test first
A recent, correct test saves time. Buyers may ask for a new test if yours is more than about two years old or the home changed.
Fix if needed
Fixing a problem before listing leaves more time to handle other issues.
Keep records
Save test results and fix details. They are a selling point and part of what Nebraska sellers disclose.
Nebraska law requires a written seller disclosure that covers what the seller knows about radon (Nebraska Real Estate Commission).
If you are buying
If radon shows up after your offer, ask your agent how the contract handles repairs. The EPA suggests setting out where the test goes, who runs it, who shares the cost, and when and how mitigation happens and who pays. If the number is 4.0 pCi/L or more, we can bid the fix and set a date. See radon testing and inspection to get a test done. Read about the numbers on the home inspection radon levels page.

Questions people ask us
Should I test before I list my home?
The EPA recommends it. Test, and if needed, lower your radon level, then save the results and fix details (EPA guide).
Will a radon system hurt my sale?
The EPA says where radon problems have been fixed, home sales have not been blocked, and the added protection is a good selling point.
Who pays for the fix?
The buyer and seller discuss timing and cost. Read our page on who pays for radon mitigation in Nebraska.
Does Nebraska require sellers to disclose radon?
Yes. The seller disclosure form requires sellers to disclose what they know about radon and whether the home has been mitigated for radon (Nebraska Real Estate Commission).
How fast can you install before closing?
We plan around your date. Call as soon as you have the number, because the test after the install also takes time.
What do I give the buyer afterward?
The test results, the system details and the post-install test. Keep the paperwork together.
