If the home inspector does find things that need to be repaired (mainly minor things) consider asking for money off the asking price or an allowance from the current owner so that you can fix it after you are in the house. Most sellers just want to sell the house and will go with the cheapest/quickest fix to a problem whereas you the new home owner might go with a more expensive but longer lasting fix. (For example water heaters, if you need a new one the old owner might buy a cheap model whereas you might decide to pay a little more for a larger or better water heater).

and READ the fine print. Don't sign anything until you have read everything and feel free to ask for copies so that you can get a second opinion on things.
