How do I find someone that understands the construction of a home

Just a quick question, I'm an investor that knows how to run the numbers on homes pretty well and determine if a home will make money based on its curb appeal, comps in the area, and what the home would potentially rent for. Also, including expenses, insurance, property tax, etc., I understand how to "run the numbers" or do the due diligence on a property, but I don't know much about how a home is structured and built. This is an issue for me because when I look inside a home, I don't really know what I'm looking for besides making sure the HVAC isn't too old, and the roof isn't too bad. Other than that, I don't know what else to look for when deciding to purchase a potential buy and hold real estate investment.
