I was talking to a planning lawyer and former conveyancer just this morning and he said that the problem is that too many potential buyers are struck by FOMO (fear of missing out) to demand the checks that they need.  Also, some real estate agents provide strata checks with their documentation, but they won’t necessarily delve into correspondence and the like, where these dangers may be hidden.

But I still think that anyone who sees cladding on a building they are thinking of buying into, and doesn’t ask the obvious question of the vendor – is that the nasty stuff that could either cost me a fortune or get me killed –  needs their head examined.
