Take your money elsewhere and GET AN INSPECTION!

Don't get into an argument with the listing agent over how their price is wrong or over inspection issues4.)

I think negotiations on knocking the price down on inspection items on value add will be huge especially if its a flip like you mentioned.

In our area, the housing authority does annual inspections to (mostly making sure the landlord is keeping up the units) review the tenant and the landlord. 

Once the tenant applies for the unit, you'll have to work with the tenant and Section 8 to get approval, which always includes an inspection of the unit.

Buying through an agent may provide more transparency, while sheriff sales and auctions can offer deals but often come with risks, like limited property inspection or legal complications.

These loan types allow you to do up to 90% of the purchase price and 100% of the renovations financed as long as you meet experience, credit, and LTC/ LTARV requirements based on an appraisal or virtual inspection.

I'd only add to get a professional inspection done with a very thorough team.

This way they can't claim ignorance.I would also require a move out inspection and make it the day after they are supposed to be moved out. 

Then there were some issues with the inspection report that ruined 3 contracts prior to me getting involved.
