Inspector almost killed me

I had an inspector come out for a live and flip property (my first purchase which I plan on flipping in 5 years or so). He came out inspected the house and failed to mention a large crack in the ceiling of the living room. A small scare but no problem I hired a sheet rock guy to patch it up. The inspector failed to note that the furnace exhaust pipe was busted wide open from the furnace to the chimney underneath the house. Had we not hired an AC mechanic to come look at the crack in the ceiling we would have probably had carbon monoxide poisoning. This inspector came recommended by people on BP. Not sure if anyone has had lackluster inspectors in Birmingham, AL as well.
