Why does Radon matter? 💫
Radon matters because it’s a colorless, odorless radioactive gas that can enter homes from the soil and build up indoors. Long-term exposure increases the risk of lung cancer.
For real estate, the key takeaway is simple: you can’t see or smell radon—the only way to know the level in a home is to test.
That’s why radon information can be an important part of understanding a property’s overall environmental hazards.
