I’m building a house and I’m paying an inspector to check each stage, he sends me a report then I send it to the builder. Then I go through with the builder and make sure he is going to fix the items, then I check items are fixed before they are covered up. But iv found it’s the home owner who has to make sure the builder fixes the problems. You can’t be hands off on builds these days.

We had 4 inspections done 3 by the realestate agent and owner and all 3 said no problems, got our own inspector and the list was 2 pages long and he even said don’t buy this house. For us it was a case of awesome views and a nice area so we ended up buying it anyway with the thought we can knock it down in 10 years and build a house we like. Always get a independent inspector from another area to come in as most all work hand in hand with the realestate agents.

I've seen so many roof designs from engineers that don't comply off the plan... I believe around 80% of roofing problems are created at design stage. I've had to fix roof designs with roofs falling towards internal walls. I mean the design "looks" nice but its not functional. (ie. Macarthy Homes has a few designs like this). Engineers need to learn that roofs falling towards internal walls requiring box gutters will become a problem within 5-10 years requiring the roofing sheets to be lifted and a new box gutter to be installed at massive cost. If you can..... steer clear of internal and box gutters! They create too many problems, even if installed correctly.

Have contingency escape clauses drawn up by a lawyer on all signed contracts (inspectors don't have x-ray vision). The realtor is not your friend.
