Recommended inspections for San Antonio duplex

[Billy Chu]

Hi everyone,

I got my first accepted offer on a duplex built in the 1980s, northwest San Antonio. 
I have a general inspection coming up but wondering what other inspections would be recommended?

I was thinking of having someone check out the foundation (my agent says this is usually in the $100 range). 
I was going to forego sewer scope - I’ve been rationalizing that this is fine since it’s 1980s built, however really I’m deterred by cost. Thoughts?

Any other recommended inspections?

Thanks!

I'm not sure about a $100 foundation inspection cost, that seems quite light as noted by @Jose Campos. However, in my opinion, I would recommend a sewer inspection. It's not that much $$$, but it will give you great insights into the health and condition of your drain lines - if you needed to replace your lines (either under a concrete slab or pier/beam foundation), it will take a good amount of money to get them repaired. I've done a few of drain line change-outs and repairs in my projects, it's totally worth it. Let me know if you have any questions. Good luck buddy!
