Thanks for the feedback from all four of you. Being that the responses were all in agreement I went ahead and scheduled an inspection. It's going to be performed this week. I appreciate the help. Can any of you tell me what you typically pay for the inspection.

I am using an FHA loan to buy a duplex. I am going to house hack on my first purchase post (housing crash related) bankruptcy.

my question is whether or not the FHA appraisal is I substitute for doing hiring my own home inspector. My understanding is that the FHA appraisal is very thorough and in depth so I was wondering if I could save another $400 and just wait for the FHA appraisal report. does anyone have any advice or recommend a good home inspector in Orlando Florida area.
