Home inspections cost about a few hundred dollars, depending on the size of the house and location. You may find the cost of inspection high, but it is money well spent.
There is no such thing as a perfect house. In some cases the inspector will pick up on code violations the builder may miss. There are many things to look at from the foundation up and even the lay of the land. Better safe than sorry.
As for the Seller, prepare, prepare, prepare before you put your home on the market. The inspector may pick up on some items in need of attention that you may have missed.
Your home is an investment and a very large investment at that. Therefore it should be worth the expense to have a professional evaluate the property.
