We were able to inspect our home before closing. (Just check for unlocked doors) We then placed blue painters tape where we found issue. On the morning of the walk through all items were fixed and not a word from the builder. During the first year we called home warranty if we had an issue. ( Home warranty folks are great.) Just before the end of our first year we hired an inspector. He sent his findings to home warranty and with in three days all of the minor issues were resolved. Good luck on your new home.
