For buyers in Grand Island
A radon test is a common add-on to a home inspection. It usually runs for about 48 hours with a continuous monitor placed in the lowest lived-in level. If the result is 4.0 pCi/L or higher, buyers often ask the seller to install a mitigation system or adjust the price. Your agent can advise on how to write that request.
For sellers in Grand Island
Testing before you list means no surprise during the inspection period. If the level is high, you can install a system on your own schedule and show buyers a passing follow-up test. A working mitigation system is a selling point, not a defect.
Working to a deadline
- Tell us your inspection or closing date in the request.
- Short-term tests need closed-house conditions for 12 hours before they start, so plan for that.
- Most mitigation systems go in within a day, and the follow-up test needs at least another 24 hours after the fan starts. Many providers wait a little longer so the reading settles.

Disclosure
Rules on what sellers must disclose are set by Nebraska law and the forms your agent uses. We are not lawyers or agents. Ask your real estate agent or attorney what applies to your sale.
