At least be sure to have the home inspected before the 1-year warranty runs out. That way you can make a final request for the builder to correct all defects and oversights. Shorting on insulation and installing recalled circuit breakers are issues that we've seen locally in the Santa Clarita CA area. Both were corrected by the builder, and upon request the insulation company bumped up the level of insulation beyond the builder's specs at no charge to make up for their error.

Absolutely right.  Some people say its more important to have an inspection done on a new home as opposed to a resale home....

Recently I've run into new homes with contracts that state you can't get a home inspection? WHAT THE ****! You got to be kiding, if that doesn't tell you there is something wrong nothing will!
