A home is a complex set of components. It would require numerous specialists — plumbers, electrician, structural engineers, roofers, etc. — to investigate every component, which would become an expensive endeavor. They also can’t promise a fair evaluation because they stand to benefit financially from the repairs. That’s why you hire a home inspector, a generalist, who can identify deficiencies and give you sound advice.
