The inspector is the best insurance you can get before you sign the rest of your life away...the VA or FHA "inspections" are just bare minimum scans by whoever is sitting around the office with his thumb up his ass & needs something to do, & their only concern is that the house isn't gonna collapse before your signature is dry (& therefore making sure >their< asses are covered)...so cover your own sweet by paying somebody to be in your corner, & don't be afraid to demand that anything your guy finds is addressed BEFORE the big day...

As the closing day approaches, practice some hand isometrics to limber up...I shudder to think of the forests that gave their all just to get all the paperwork you'll hafta sign...
