Just get an inspection. A good inspector will not only tell about
existing problems, but will tell when you need to address future
problems (like the roof is ten years old, look to replacing it 5-8
years). They are not that expensive. You are talking about spending
$137K for a property, and you are going to chintz on a $200 inspection
that could give some really valuable information. Don't be penny wise
and pound foolish.
