Buyer beware

Dear Editor:

Be alert when buying any real-estate in Elora or Fergus. There is a termite area in each. Real estate agents and sellers are supposed to inform you if their place is in one of these areas. I know of a young couple that found out the hard way – they purchased a house with termites. Thousands of dollars for treatment and even more to rid the house of damaged wood.
