This may be one of the most popular urban legends in CA real estate: Does California Require a Termite Inspection? The short answer is "No." I just got a text from a client who is in escrow to buy a home in Orange.  We had their property inspection earlier today.  He wanted a referral for a termite company.  I was surprised for two reasons: 1.
