I thought about having a home inspection done prior to closing, but didn't know if that was common. It appears to be more common than I would have thought.
We will look for a highly regarded title company and inspector. Where do we find the escrow person?

With a new home, if the builder is reputable, a home inspection isn't necessary. But if you don't know what to look for, it's not a bad idea.
Escrow officer is your title officer. Whoever is handling your title work.
