Comment of the day: exactly what can wary buyers do?

Our comment of the day is actually a question. We all know the old maxim, “buyer beware,” but what exactly can buyers at condo conversions do beyond being wary? In response to today’s post about buyers in loft conversions getting slammed with unexpected expenses, Yo reader Carter commented:

Don’t you think it’s at the very least dishonest (and ultimately bad business) for developers not to reveal building problems? […] As a buyer, what exactly are you allowed to do? I can’t imagine I could just walk in to a converted loft and start prying things apart with a crowbar to see what’s underneath the drywall, above the ceiling, etc?
