[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you do a pre offer inspection? Walk through the house with an inspector before you make your offer just to make sure if there are major issues you can find them? If you wave the inspection, there is the risk you can find a major problem later. It may not be common but there can be cracks in foundation, water issues in the basement or other issues. I still remember after the 2005-2008 real estate market frenzy people coming to dcum after the market turned complaining that they had bought at the top of the market with no inspection and now had found a cracked foundation, did not have money to fix it and could not sell [/quote]
We put 5 offers and none got accepted. If we had hired inspector for all 5, we had spent over 1000 already. From my experience, inspector only can find things visible from appearance, but  nothing underneath finishes. We did discover something like a ruined subfloor under tiles after we bought the townhouse, Which inspection  did not find it. [/quote]
