Hi

I'm in the process of buying a SFH (built in 98) in Fort Worth area and the inspection came back stating that:

"There is some cracking on the floor in the garage. Recommend this be monitored."

and... "There is some cracking and nail pops noted on the ceiling and walls through-out. Consider touch-up repairs. There is evidence of past moisture on the ceiling in the kitchen. Consult seller for history."

The inspector said foundation (Concrete) is in good shape but stated that: "Small cracks are visible in the foundation system. Most small cracks are normal due to the curing process of concrete and/or mortar shortly after installation."

Do these suggest there might be high cost issues with the house? Should I skip or bring someone over for an expert opinion?

Thanks for the help!
