Pls this is not the time to cut costs. Home Inspection BEFORE you buy, you would be very surprised what could go wrong while the house was being built. If they find something, they will correct it FAST so they can pass papers. Once you pass papers you are on their timeline to correct the issue. Just a note.... selling my home in Miami to move here, went through hurricane Andrew 20 years prior. The new buyers had checked and found PERMITS WERE NOT DONE on rebuilding my home. I never checked and ended up losing $20,000 to redo CODE and proper permits. Then in order to sell the house I had to offer $5,000 extra for them to take the house on and fix it. what a mess.... so always always protect yourself
