There were several things that were “okayed” by the inspector that we had to replace or fix within a few months.

I’m confident that if we had our own inspector they would have been more frank with the issues of the home.

I’m hoping to buy a house in the next year or two, but I don’t have a clue of what to expect finances wise. Also, it might be better to rent, and avoid all the various costs of repairs and such.
