We are having a home inspection tomorrow on a house we just purchased. Any questions I should ask the home inspector when he is finished?

Don't you usually do the inspection before you buy the house?

If he's good and thorough he'll be telling you things about your house that you never even thought could possibly be issues.

It's bought conditionally on the home inspection.

which if you bought the house conditional to the inspection, would be the previous owners responsibilty. So make sure he was thorough in all areas. If the house is heated with oil, and the tank is underground, they need to check for leaks. If there is problems with plumbing, etc make sure it all comes out now. Later you will be the ones responsible.
