Hi Morris, With Termites, if you were to buy the home, I would treat the problem ASAP so they don't continue doing damage. Always use a licensed professional for all such work. When a buyer would consider buying your house in the future, they would most likely have their own termite inspection, and the results may be a factor in the pricing of the home. So in regards to your potential purchase, get a termite inspection, and find out what kind of costs are involved for repiars and use that in your decision making. Let me know if I can be of any assistance to you in the Bay Area with your Real Estate or Home Loan needs.
