Radon and Real Estate: What Buyers and Sellers Need to Know in Saskatchewan

For Home Sellers

• Pre-Sale Testing: Consider testing your home for radon before listing it. If levels are below the recommended action level of 200 Bq/m³, you can highlight this as a selling point.

• Disclosure: If radon mitigation has been performed, provide documentation of the work done and any follow-up testing results.

• Market Advantage: Homes with known low radon levels may appeal to health-conscious buyers, potentially leading to a quicker sale.

For Home Buyers

• Request Testing: If radon testing hasn't been conducted, consider requesting it as part of your home inspection process.

• Evaluate Results: If radon levels are above 200 Bq/m³, discuss mitigation options with the seller or plan for mitigation after purchase.

• Budget for Mitigation: Radon mitigation systems typically cost between $2,500 and $3,500, depending on the home's characteristics.
