If you buy the house outright yourself then no you do not need a home inspection..If you are going to finance the house your lender may require a home inspection to protect their investment....

Regardless of whether you are required to or not,it is still sound advice to have a home inspection done before you buy the house, even if the seller/realitor has already had a home inspection done,you still need to hire your own professional and have it done again,because those doing the inspection for the seller/realitor are looking out for them not you....

Home inspection is private or public?

A home inspection is a private service that is typically requested by people who are looking to buy or sell a home. A home inspection is when a certified inspector is hired to inspect a home to determine the condition of the home. The results of a home inspection are confidential and are only shared with the client who requested the inspection. The results of the inspection may affect a real estate transaction. However, the inspection itself is not public, which protects the client's privacy.
