Help with buying first house

Well im looking at buying my first house, getting tired of renting...

found this one:

It needs all the carpet ripped up, some drywall work and general make it pretty stuff. Im going to get an inspection but im wondering if anyone sees anything, and believe me the pics make it look better.

also, they ran electrical but then put it above a false ceiling which i would rip out immediately... just looking for some thoughts and maybe ideas of what to look for myself before I go and make an offer for more money than ive ever seen in my life.

also if I offer less than the asking, but get the loan for say 10-15 more to finish out the house is this a good idea?

Thanks
