I will give you my two cents on home inspectors. I would hire a plumber to inspect plumbing, an electrician to inspect electrical, HVAC, to inspect HVAC, and structural, foundation to inspect those areas, etc.
So I was interested in an electrical and a plumbing, but this is also brand new construction with a very reputable local builder.
If it were older home I would do all of them, but I'm a bit on the fence right now.

new or not - you honestly have no way of telling if corners are cut in regards to the work being done. a little more money out for the inspectors, but secure peace of mind that you wont get blind sided on unforeseen stuff.
depending on where you are, once the line is signed - if you didn't get it looked at, you are likely fricked - it is what happened to my wife and I - a very expensive lesson learned

All it takes is one crew of new subs to totally destroy reputation (and your investment)...
