There are quite a few inspections lists for homes that I found here and here. It seems pretty straightforward, but how does the game change when I decide to buy an out-of-state property? At that point, do I just trust my home inspector? While we're on the topic of home inspections, what usually happens if the inspector finds something that is questionable? Does the price go down?

Back to the local inspection lists, is there some point where it becomes a waste of time and you just have to trust your inspector?
