Kenneth Lawrence answered:
The structure must be sound first and foremost. Work your way down from the roof (strusses-if visible from the attic), then the exterior walls and basement (if there is one). Check for leaks and the presence of mold (a potentially dangerous substance) Also check for termite and other insect infestation.
The electrical and plumbing systems would be next, which leads to the following suggestion.
Save yourself a lot of potential grief and hire a licensed home inspector, approved by your state or local government. The average cost of such an inspection would be less than $500. If the home needs a "lot of work" have a pro check it out. - Fri Jun 20 2008, 20:03
