Each locality is a bit different. That's where a knowledgeable BUYERS real estate agent can be worth their commission. For example, you may have to have water rights to be able to have livestock on your property. Not a problem in the east but a huge problem out west. A local agent should know these things.
You don't say how you intend to finance it. If you're getting bank financing, they'll insist on title insurance (or an abstract in some locales). That will result in a title search and, should there be any encumbrances they don't find, insurance to defend the title from encumbrances. Even if you're paying cash, I would still certainly get title insurance.
A lender will also insist on an appraisal. If you're paying cash you don't need to get an appraisal, but you should do your homework on comparable sales. If you have a buyer's agent, they can pull recent sales for you.
"Plenty of outbuildings" could mean "plenty of maintenance that hasn't been" done. My experience with house inspections hasn't been great. Rather than a home inspector, I suggest you get a general contractor you trust to look over the property and buildings.
Wells and septic can be a big problem. The county health department is usually responsible for inspecting these items.
