I'm guessing less? Depends if you count the people who begrudgingly spend the money on a home inspection when it's recommended by someone (ie: Realtor or mortgage broker). It's a drop in the bucket vs the several hundred thousand dollars you are about to spend.
I'm always surprised the amount of individuals who never consider doing regular maintenance on a car and assumes a vehicle magically never breaks down. These individuals generally forget/are completely unaware a family member or SO has been getting the oil changes and whatever else needs to be done. I knew of individuals who never filled up their car in their life and had been driving for years. They just "swap" vehicles with either a family member or SO and take it out again when the fuel light isn't on. Sadly, this isn't limited to girls. I've heard of a few guys who do this as well.
