A few wekks ago, the Dallas Observer did a cover article about people who have lost thousands/tens of thousands thanks to incompetent inspectors who failed to note foundation problems etc. (can't remember exactly when it ran - about two to three months ago). Anyway, the story was scary because it didn't provide much of a solution and gave the impression the industry was pretty incompetent. I have never understood why purchasers allow the seller to select the inspector - makes no sense to me either. Only recommendation is hiring one yourself, making sure they are licensed etc. and checking with BBB for complaints. Anyway you are definitely not alone in your plight.
