I don’t think it is necessary and would think it is rare. When we bought ours we did a walk through when we were giving the deposit and made a list of some obvious things that were fixed right away. Many/most do a walkthrough the day of closing with the developer or warranty dept I believe. This we didn’t do as we closed through the mail. On our first trip down our son who is a contractor went through the house and made a list of all the issues he found. We let the warranty dept know and I think we had 6-7 different vendors at the house over time. We never did a 1 year inspection since we had everything taken care of already. Long answer to say do what makes you feel comfortable.
