We had to have it re-wired when we bought it (it was less than 20 years old) , the roof leaked like a sieve because it wasn't put on properly, all of the concrete paving surrounding the building sank because there wasn't enough hardcore under it, all in all a feckin shambles, not to mention the plumbing and heating. At least we weren't stupid enough not to know how bad it was, and paid a cheap fair price for it. On reflection, I wish we hadn't bought it, because we've since realised that most of the neighbours are up-themselves arseholes, who've barely spoken to us since we moved in 20 years ago. The builder himself was quite busy during the boom, conning the local county council into thinking he was keeping to the rules, when in fact he wasn't, particularly with regard to using proper materials for foundations. On one estate that he built, the first house had the proper limestone foundations, and the council gave it the ok when they inspected it. The rest of the houses had everything but the right materials under them, but of course the council didn't know because they didn't look at those when they were being done. I can well believe that shoddy buildings have been knocked up by 1000s over the decades, and you never hear of anyone getting nailed for it.
