Every service has an errors and omissions clause in a contract. House inspectors do, yet every uses them and takes their word as law. Do they use a house inspector to find every single problem with a house? No. The last one I used looked at the roof with binoculars.
You use an inspector to find the things that need to be fixed before you purchase the unit, or to get the price reduced by the amount that it would cost you to fix it after purchase.
Advising someone who has never owned a motor home to get on a plane and inspect it themselves is reckless. Yes NRVIA inspectors are expensive when booked through NRVIA. They take a cut. A round trip plane ticket, hotel room for a night or 2, a rental car, meals and taking vacation time is expensive too, and you have no guarantee that as a newbie you will find anything wrong. Most of the people I do inspections for can't figure out how to open the screen door.
Or you can just take the sales person's word for it.
