That tells you a lot.I would be looking at all this stuff way BEFORE you hire an inspector......Typically inspectors only check the water pressure coming into the house, but not the pressure of the pipes.On a house that old, I would also hire a separate plumber to scope the sewer pipes, unless you know PVC has recently been installed....probably $150.You should also have termite/WDI inspection as part of your home inspection.
