***For those that are unsure of what an investor inspection is, it is a watered-down, more generalized version of a home inspection. It does not require as detailed of an inspection as the standard home inspection, but an overall assessment of the structure and property. Although it is cheaper, make no mistake, an investor inspection should only be requested by experienced investors
