This is what the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has to say about Radon Gas
 "When the home has not been tested for Radon"
 ”If the seller has no knowledge of the home being tested for radon, suggest a test be done immediately by an NEHA listed Measurement Provider. This could save precious time during a real estate transaction. The test device should be placed in the lowest level of the home suitable for occupancy. If the lower level of the home is unfinished, but could be completed in the future and occupied, the test should occur in this portion of the house. Potential buyers may want to know everything the seller knows about any radon tests.
A typical home inspection can easily include a radon test upon request. A seller may wish to wait until an inspection is performed during the potential sale of the home, however, if the results are elevated the seller should be prepared to discuss corrective measures before the sale closes."
You are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on your new home! It would be foolish for you of you not to spend the extra money for a radon test, to protect your family and your investment.
