Private house inspector?  

And when you have rehab going on, they'll send inspectors out to make sure your contractor's actually doing work and not BSing you.

You can also hire an inspector which will give you a better feel for the home. 

Perhaps a nice 1950's built bungalow.Always hire a 3rd party property inspector to give you an unbiased feel for the home.

I'm in the process now of closing on a 3 unit in baltimore that was turnkey for the most part, but the biggest thing I found valuable was getting a good inspector. 

I'd also use an independent appraiser and inspector, not one provided by the turnkey company. 

I was doing research on angies list, google etc for a good property inspector in the area and found A to Z .

I am looking for a good home inspector and appraiser in the Houston area.

I don't like cutting corners and want to deliver a solid home as we all do but it is an old home, my inspector missed the pit and the plumber I am currently working with initially missed the pit too, when I pointed it out he found out that the whole plumbing system was toward the end of its life.
