Does anyone have a good inspector I can hire in the Outer East of Melbourne for final inspection? I heard a horror story from someone this week who is in legal dispute with builder over poor drainage and floor lifting, The sort of thing you dont find out until after a heavy rain. Do you have the right to withhold the final payment until everything is corrected to your satisfaction? I guess you can't get the keys until all issues are resolved. Completion is due mid June. I used New Home Inspections, they were great. Picked up a lot of things I wouldn't. According to the HIA Building Contract, you have to pay them once the job/stage is "completed". So if they've completed everything according to the definition of "complete" in the contract then you cannot withhold any payment. However if they haven't completed the building work in accordance to the contract then you do not have the obligation to pay them. If you intend to do it, please communicate with your SS, CSC & Accounts Department, don't forget to quote the relevant clauses in the contract as well. __________________________________________ Built Camberwell 29 with PD - Hand Over was on 22/12/10 http://ssazcamberwell29.blogspot.com/ Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 12338 Ask for references and speak to them.
