How to protect myself in buy/hold cash purchase before closing??

[Cora Kemp-Epps]

This is Cora.  I am using  equity from my home to pay cash for a property that is below who most loan minimums.  Using a title company to close with the seller will insure clear title; having an inspection before handing over the cash will identify any structural issues or problems.  Is there anything else I should do to avoid buying a big problem, or a "lemon"??  THANK YOU!!!!!!
