You will be required to get a foundation inspection report on top of an appraisal and you are required to pay for both.That is why I said make sure you do your research because if you pay for an appraisal or foundation inspection report and its not within guide lines you will have just wasted anywhere from $650 to $1000.00 non refundable.  

And how do I roll this into a cheaper mortgage (my dti would be too bad for another conventional).Maybe a lender would be able to consider the electric "working" with the proper inspection?
