Mold Inspector – translated – normally means unemployed painter, carpenter, builder, who has found a new niche to make money. There are weekend courses to become a “Certified” mold inspector from many unreputable con artists. They simple are not worth any where near the money they charge.
To really identify or certify an environement mold free a series of several tests (tape, swab, air, bulk) need to be performed, including your thermal imaging.

Quit being a cheap tight wad. And quit buying houses. If you dont want to pay for quality inspections!

Your inspector should have simply let you know, from the beginning, that Mold or Home Inspectors do not do destructive inspections. Like pulling apart walls and baseboards.
My recommendation would have been for you to hire someone that does thermal imaging. This is the simplest way to look inside a wall without actually pulling it apart. The problem with it is that most people don’t want to pay the $300-$500 bucks for the thermal imaging.
