“You Can Sell a House With Termite Damage in Spokane”
If you’ve discovered termite damage in your Spokane home, you’re probably feeling a mix of stress, frustration, and dread. We get it — termite issues aren’t just cosmetic. They can affect your home’s structural integrity, its value, and how fast it sells.
But here’s the good news:
You can sell a house with termite damage in Spokane — and you don’t have to fix it first.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we buy homes as-is, termites and all. Let’s walk through your options and what to expect.
Why Termite Damage Is a Big Deal for Homeowners
Termites love eating wood — and once they find a home they like, they don’t leave easily. Spokane homes, especially older ones in neighborhoods like South Hill or Garland District, are particularly vulnerable to infestation.
Here’s why termite damage scares off traditional buyers:
- Hidden damage: Termites often destroy structural wood behind walls or under floors.
- Costly repairs: Fixing termite damage can cost $2,000 to $10,000+.
- Financing issues: Lenders may refuse to fund the sale until repairs are made.
- Disclosure obligations: Washington law requires sellers to disclose known pest problems.

Yes, You Can Sell a House With Termite Damage in Spokane
You have options:
1. Fix the Damage Before Selling
If you’ve got time and money, you can hire a pest control company to eliminate the termites and repair the structure.
✅ Pros:
- Makes the house more appealing
- Easier to sell on the open market
❌ Cons:
- Expensive and time-consuming
- Might uncover even more hidden issues
- Still might not get full asking price
2. List It As-Is With a Real Estate Agent
You can disclose the termite issue and hope to find a buyer willing to take it on. But this often leads to:
- Long listing periods
- Lowball offers
- Inspection contingencies
- Appraisal problems
3. Sell to a Spokane Cash Buyer (Like Us!)
This is the easiest and fastest option — REI Branded Home Buyer specializes in buying homes with all kinds of issues, including termite damage.
You won’t have to:
- Pay for extermination
- Make repairs
- Clean up
- Worry about inspections or buyer financing
We’ll buy your house exactly as it is, even if the termites are still partying in the basement.
Real Spokane Story: Termites and Trouble in South Hill
We recently worked with a Spokane homeowner in the South Hill area who discovered termites had infested the subflooring of a rental property. The damage was extensive and the tenants had just moved out. Rather than sinking money into repairs and trying to sell it traditionally, they called us. We made a fair cash offer, closed in 10 days, and handled everything — termites included.

About REI Branded Home Buyer
Real People. Real Stories. Real Solutions. We’re George and TJ — two regular guys who teamed up to create REI Branded Home Buyer, a local company with one simple mission: to help people sell their homes without stress, games, or pressure. We actually met at a local real estate meetup. A mutual friend randomly shouted, “Hey George, do you want to be this guy’s mentor?” George laughed and said, “Just give him my cell!” A coffee meeting later, and the rest is history. We've been working together ever since. Our passion for helping homeowners comes from personal experience. George was once homeless, so he deeply understands what it’s like to face housing uncertainty. TJ’s family went through a crisis and had to sell their home fast — with the help of a cash homebuyer. Those experiences shaped who we are and inspired us to create a company that treats people the way we wish we’d been treated. Let’s be real: the real estate world is full of shady companies, pushy salespeople, and sleazy homebuyers who care more about profit than people. We started REI Branded Home Buyer because we believe it should be the other way around — people first, profit second. We’re proud to call Spokane home. Our wives, Jenny and Michelle, love the slower pace of life here and all the outdoor beauty Washington has to offer. George and Jenny have two amazing daughters and two dogs — they love to travel and recently visited Japan to see their daughter abroad. TJ and Michelle are outdoor lovers through and through — backpacking, hiking, hunting, fishing, even rock climbing. Michelle’s become quite the mountaineer! If you’re thinking about selling a house — no matter the reason — we’d love to hear your story and see how we can help.
