Total Title Scam Encounter in Real Estate

 In Pest Control

Maximum Pest Control Services, a reputable name in the pest control industry located in Oakville, Burlington, Hamilton and Milton Ontario, was contracted to address a burgeoning pest issue affecting several residential properties. The team arrived promptly and executed their tasks for mice control with precision, ensuring that each home received meticulous attention to detail and effective pest control treatment. However, upon completion of the job and submission for payment, the company encountered an unexpected roadblock: the homeowner’s account had been flagged due to an alarming incident of Total Title Fraud Crime.

In this insidious hidden scheme, scammers had successfully impersonated legitimate homeowners, leaving Maximum Pest Control without recourse for compensation as they navigated through layers of deceit woven into property ownership records. This unfortunate turn of events not only jeopardized their financial recovery but also underscored the urgent need for vigilance against such fraudulent practices within the real estate landscape of Toronto.

Protect Your Investment: The Importance of Including Pest Control Inspections in Your Home Buying Checklist

Pest control Inspection

Emerging home buyers that seek the acquisition of real estate, should keep in mind that even with home-buyers’ inspections, which are commonplace, they are unlikely to fully uncover all the problems which may be concealed and incorporated into the walls and foundations of the house. This is when it becomes very important to engage the services of a pest control trained inspector. It may be noted that general inspection of the property is primarily oriented towards building elements and systems functional examination, while pest control specialists perform more focused tasks such as looking for pest infestation with termites, mice, rats or other pests which may prove to be monetarily damaging in the long term.

Why a House Inspection Isn’t Enough?

Such concealed nuisances may pose danger to the physical and structural integrity of the built environment and the same may be undetected until such time that the said nuisance had already inflicted adverse impact. The range of pests that can invade property and intrude the newly acquired dwelling is wide, but the cost incurred in repairing the damages meant for control of the pests and their future threats as well can be avoided by having extensive pest control inspections done while still negotiating or agreeing on a real estate property transaction.
