Multiple Home Inspections when looking for a property

Moaaz Malik

Hi All,

I had a quick question when it comes to paying for home inspections. When you guys are making offers on multiple properties are you paying out of pocket for a home inspection for each home? Let's say you keep getting a bad report and the amount you're paying continues to add up, is there a more efficient way to do this?

With inspections costing $400-600, my main concern is that the inspection on the current home goes bad and the same thing happens on the next house. What if this happens 3-4 times? I'll be out of $1600-2000.

Also, how often do these inspections go bad? The house from the pictures seems to be in pretty good shape.
