Every Transaction.
Every Property Type.
San Antonio ranks among the most termite-prone cities in the country. Bexar County has confirmed activity from both native subterranean and Formosan termites — the most destructive species in North America. The area's mild winters, limestone-rich soil, and year-round humidity create near-ideal colony conditions. Every property type, every transaction needs a WDI inspection.
San Antonio is Military City USA — home to Fort Sam Houston, Lackland AFB, and Randolph AFB. Every VA loan in Texas requires a WDI inspection — no exceptions. With thousands of military families PCSing to JBSA each year, this is the single most common WDI requirement in the San Antonio market. Builder pre-treatment does not satisfy your lender.
Buying at Alamo Ranch, Davis Ranch, Veramendi, Kinder Ranch, or any of San Antonio's 555+ new construction communities? New homes sit on soil with established termite populations. Builder treatment is preventive pest control — not a Texas Official WDI Report. VA buyers need the independent licensed inspection regardless.
Purchasing an existing home in San Antonio, Converse, Universal City, Helotes, or anywhere in Bexar County? Termite damage discovered after closing is your cost. Older San Antonio homes — especially in historic districts like King William, Monte Vista, and Alamo Heights — carry elevated risk from pier-and-beam construction and decades of exposure.
A pre-listing WDI inspection removes the most common last-minute transaction disruption in the San Antonio market. Know what's there before buyers make it a negotiation. With 16,500+ active listings in 2026, a clean pre-listing WDI report differentiates your home. Address issues on your terms, not theirs.
San Antonio's subterranean termite colonies are active year-round. They don't wait for a transaction to start working on your foundation. Annual inspections catch early-stage activity before colonies are established — and create a documented condition history that adds verifiable value at resale.
Commercial lenders serving Bexar County routinely require WDI inspections as a condition of funding. WDIPro produces the TDA-licensed SPCS/T-5 report your lender, insurer, or buyer needs — for warehouses, retail, industrial, and multi-family properties across Greater San Antonio.
San Antonio Ranks Among the Most
Termite-Prone Cities in the Country.
Bexar County has confirmed populations of both Eastern subterranean termites and Formosan subterranean termites — two of the most destructive species in North America. San Antonio's limestone-rich soil, mild winters that never kill colonies, and year-round humidity create conditions where termite activity never stops.
Subterranean termites are the primary threat — present in the soil across virtually every neighborhood in San Antonio, from historic King William and Monte Vista to new construction along Loop 1604 and beyond. They access structures through mud tubes along foundation walls, plumbing penetrations, and weep holes in slab construction — often undetected for years.
Formosan termites were confirmed in Bexar County and are spreading through landscaping materials including old railroad ties. They form larger colonies than native subterranean species and create aerial nests — making them significantly more aggressive and harder to control once established.
Older San Antonio neighborhoods — particularly those with pier-and-beam construction, historic wooden elements, or mature tree canopy near foundations — carry elevated risk. New construction along the growth corridors sits on land with established soil populations. Every property in Bexar County warrants a WDI inspection regardless of age or construction type.
Military City USA.
VA Loans Require the Report.
San Antonio is home to over 80,000 active-duty personnel and 250,000 veterans. Joint Base San Antonio — combining Fort Sam Houston, Lackland AFB, and Randolph AFB — drives more VA loan transaction volume than almost any other market in the country.
Every VA-financed purchase in Texas requires a WDI inspection from a TDA-licensed inspector, reported on the SPCS/T-5 form. The VA appraisal is not a substitute. Builder pre-treatment documentation is not a substitute. The inspection must be independent and licensed.
WDIPro delivers the exact report your lender needs — within 24 hours, timed to your option period and closing deadline. Whether you're PCSing to JBSA or a veteran putting down roots in San Antonio, we have you covered.
Texas is a mandatory WDI inspection state for all VA loans. Here's what that means for military buyers in San Antonio.
Buyers. Sellers. Agents. Investors.
Every Resale Deserves a Report.
The WDI inspection tells you what's living in the structure before you're bound to the purchase. San Antonio's older housing stock — Alamo Heights, Monte Vista, King William, Olmos Park — has had decades of subterranean exposure. A clean report gives you confidence. A report that finds something gives you leverage.
Order your WDI report before you list. Address findings on your terms before buyers use them to renegotiate. In San Antonio's 2026 buyer's market with 13+ months of inventory, a clean pre-listing WDI report is a genuine differentiator — especially against new construction competing for the same buyer.
A WDI report surfacing active infestation at inspection — with a closing deadline running — is a deal killer. Agents who recommend WDIPro get same-day turnaround on scheduling, 24-hour report delivery, SPCS/T-5 and NPMA-33 in the same package, and a clean process that doesn't create problems that weren't already there.
You don't need to be selling to need a WDI inspection. San Antonio's termite pressure is year-round. Subterranean colonies don't hibernate, don't go dormant, and don't wait for a transaction to start working on your foundation. Annual inspections catch early-stage activity before it requires treatment.
Historic San Antonio neighborhoods — King William, Monte Vista, Tobin Hill, Lavaca — feature pier-and-beam construction with direct wood-to-soil contact. These structures carry the highest termite exposure risk in the city. WDI inspections on historic properties require careful attention to crawlspace access, beam condition, and conducive conditions that are unique to older construction.
Investment properties — rentals, flips, multi-family — require the same documented baseline as owner-occupied homes. A missed infestation becomes your liability the moment you close. WDIPro delivers the official report that protects your acquisition regardless of how you intend to use the property.
What Your Lender Needs
Before Closing in Bexar County.
Every VA-financed purchase in Texas requires a WDI inspection. San Antonio is one of the most VA-active markets in the country. Fort Sam Houston, Lackland, and Randolph drive thousands of VA transactions annually — every one requires the SPCS/T-5 from a TDA-licensed inspector before the lender can fund. Builder pre-treatment documentation does not satisfy this requirement.
FHA does not mandate WDI nationally, but lenders serving Bexar County — a confirmed high-termite-pressure zone — routinely add it as a lender overlay. If the FHA appraiser observes any evidence of termite activity or conducive conditions, an inspection becomes mandatory regardless. Get ahead of it before the appraisal.
No federal requirement — but Bexar County's termite pressure doesn't respect loan types. Cash buyers have no lender standing between them and an undisclosed infestation at closing. The $175 inspection is the only document that creates a legal baseline of the property's condition on purchase day — and the cost of termite repair averages $3,000+.
