Just to let you know that the builder and city inspectors can screw up. I purchased a new under construction home in a different state, I was measuring the lot for future landscaping plans and I found that the entire house was mislocated on the lot by about 4 feet closer to the road and was in violation with the HOA standards.

I ended up talking to the city engineer and negotiating with the builder to get an exemption / approval from the HOA.

And it took the builder two additional attempts to get the survey correct.!
