Should a cash buyer in Canton still get an inspection?

A cash buyer in Canton should still get an inspection, since paying without a loan removes the lender's requirement for one but does not remove the buyer's own risk of costly hidden issues like a failing roof or foundation problem. Skipping the inspection to close faster or look more attractive in a competitive offer trades a real financial protection for speed. A shortened inspection period is often a reasonable middle ground that keeps the protection while still moving quickly. Joel Boss recommends an inspection on every Canton cash purchase he handles.
