[quote=Anonymous]Hire a contractor for a day and have them inspect the home--kinda like your own "holmes on homes" guy. Good contractors know shoddy work. You might also hire an master electrician to check out the work. You might spend $500 but you go into the deal much more informed. Also, I wouldn't totally rely on a home inspector. If you hire the contractor or electrician, you can leave it out of the contract, making your offer more attractive, and have them inspect the house during a visit. If they do not want to do repairs, pull out. The flippers don't know if you are a contractor yourself or related to someone who is. There are people out there who would love to earn 300 or 400 to pull apart someone else's work! [/quote]
