I cannot emphasize enough the value and importance of a home inspection.  Many home purchasers, either in the desire to save the $250 to $500 inspection costs or due to not understanding what a home inspection is, have spent enormous sums of money repairing items that a professional home inspector would have pointed out.
 
Any offer to purchase you make should be contingent upon (subject to) a whole house inspection.  Please do not be dissuaded from having the property thoroughly inspected!!! 
 
Inspections are designed to disclose defects in the property that could materially affect its safety, livability or resale value.  They are not designed to disclose cosmetic deficiencies (for example, an interior wall that needs paint touch up).  You will need to determine on your own those types of items that will need attention.
 
Don't wait until you have placed an offer on a house before you begin the search for a home inspector.  Call UNIVERSAL HOME INSPECTIONS INC. so you can schedule adequate time before the inspection must be completed.
