If you're looking for an inspector who is familiar with older homes, Joe the Home Inspection Guy is your man. I hired him to inspect the 100+-year-old home I was considering buying (which I did end up purchasing). He is a Registered Home Inspector (RHI) and a a Certified Master Inspector. He has a lot of specialized equipment, like a device that checks for moisture and a machine that allows him to view the roof from the ground. He checked everything -- even crawling up into the attic -- took digital photos of all problem areas, and explained everything he found to me along the way. He provides the final report, including the photos, electronically so that you can view and save it online or print it out yourself, and gives you a binder to put it in with other home-maintenance information. He's also a really nice guy, and seems to be well-known in the area.
