Considering that a home purchase is most likely the most expensive transaction that you will have in your lifetime, the value of a home inspection should be obvious to most.

With a cost of around $300.00 (price varies with inspector, if there is a pool, etc.), it is a small cost to pay to have a professional look at the home.  I recall one time when I had a first time buyer inform me that he wasn't going to get a professional home inspection.  I convinced him of its importance. 

The inspection revealed a number of issues that the seller was responsible for correcting (before closing) per our purchase contract and he more than saved the amount of the cost of inspection.  More importantly, the inspection revealed an electrical problem with the spa which if not corrected could have caused serious injury or death!!

My advice:  PAY FOR THE HOME INSPECTION!!
