Other inspections before purchasing?

Hi,

Been lingering, but time for my first post.

I went under contract today for a two (maybe three) family I'm planning to BRRRR, it's older than anything I'm accustomed to and wondering if anyone has suggestions on additional inspections to do during my contingency/inspection period.

The house was built in 1890 and has a stone foundation, I don’t know much about stone foundations and not sure the average home inspector will either.

Other structural considerations that experience out there recommends?

I’m guessing I will have to replace most/all electrical and perhaps the same for plumbing, factoring that into my numbers already.

Thanks and looking forward to feedback since I don’t know what I don’t know.
