I am a licensed home inspector. After an inspection, included in my packet that includes the report, there are almost 100 pages of "tips and tricks". I've had people call me back years later thanking me for saving them tens of thousands of dollars on mitigation and/or repairs. I'll even offer free advice if they email me. Most home inspections in the US are $400-600. Mine START at $1100 and go up. For that you get a detailed report of every room. What outlets are on what breaker number, "grab" strength of the outlets, CFM from EACH air vent, etc. It's a little comprehensive, and I regularly turn down work as I'm too busy. Don't cheap-out on a THOROUGH home inspection! It's the most expensive purchase you'll likely make! And don't believe a brand-new house, or even one you had built, doesn't need a comprehensive inspection!
"I was this dummy. My toilet started running. Intermittently at first but then more frequently. I kept putting it off. Then I had three major surgeries back to back and put off looking at the bills until they were due at the end of the month. My water bill was somewhere around $550 dollars. It is normally $50!
Then because I’d put off looking at it until the end of the month and the water bill invoices for the month before that, I hadn’t caught it in time. So when the next month’s bill arrived it was $650ish!
It was just a piece inside the tank that needed to be swapped out. A $10 part that literally took 4 minutes. It cost me over $1k just because I kept putting off looking at a toilet that had started running."
