The issue is that components dont build systems. Sure, maybe that get concrete that tests to 35Mpa. But was the embedded steel reinforcement coated properly, or will it rust? Were the balconies and doors sealed? Did anyone wash grout down the drains? And then imagine someone finds a problem, like “leaks” in a sibling comment. Do they revisit the strucutral issues that led to it? Or do they patch it up with a new 3rd party tradie and walk away?
The idea being that your point inspection are finite. And the responsibility will be laundered behind a legal or organizational structure. Youre not going to reach anyone “responsible” for systemic issues. And as soon as you do that youll dampen all relevant investment activity. See the Washington State Condominium Act for a great example.
