Good afternoon. Do you have the right to a final inspection prior to possession date? Yes. Condition 3.2 in the Agreement for Sale and Purchase clearly states; If the property is sold with vacant possession the vendor shall permit the purchaser or any person authorised by the purchaser in writing upon reasonable notice: (1) to enter the property on one occasion prior to the possession date for the  purposes of examining the property, chattels and fixtures which are included in the sale. Furthermore if the vendor has agreed prior to settlement and possession to repair or carry out any works you may re-enter the property to confirm compliance of the works.

Have you ever thought of taking a hair dryer to your Final Inspection to check the power points are working.

Have a great day Kim Matheson Principal Property Conveyancing Services Ltd
