> home inspections are largely useless Horseshit. When looking for a house earlier this year we had an offer accepted on a place we loved. Only question mark was the basement. Independent inspector took a through look at the basement and plumbing and basically said we will be living with water during the storm season without mitigation that could range between 5k and 25k. I have two plumbers in my family that took a look at the photos/report and confirmed the price estimate/work was spot on. On top of that he found asbestos (we knew before hand) and high radon levels (we did not know). Needless to say the $600 I paid for the inspection was the best money I've spent in a long time.
