Get sample reports. Any inspector that includes cosmetic things as "filler" in a house is not worth it. You want someone that focuses on actual issues that may/may not need to be repaired or looked into.

If you get someone that gives 40 pages of crap: "Carpet in bedroom #3 has slight stain" or "Kitchen cabinet door #8 has paint chip" they are wasting your time, the time of the seller, and the time of the realtors.

Long reports does not = good. Most inspectors just fill out set templates anyways, and often feel that by filling out every line, that means they are good.
