Type of inspections

[Dale Crawford]

We just had an offer accepted on an older duplex in need of repairs. I definitely want to have inspection(s) done. My agent suggested instead of having a whole house inspection done to just get individual contractors (plumbing, electric, heat & air) done. Her explanation was the whole house inspection would just tell me to contact individual contractors anyway. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? What types of individual contractors should I have do inspections? Thanks
