Why take legal advice from the buyers agent that gave you the wrong advice before? What is the idea to send it thru a conveyancer?
I would send it myself, it will be you who they communicate to arrange inspection and carry out the work so I see no need to use the conveyancer
thanks Terry and West.
I rang them. All 3 numbers and the email that was provided on their website. Nothing. Guess they are busy? But I will keep at it. Every day, every hour if I have to. I might even visit their head office. Does persistence work? I have 2 years!

Give them a few days then follow up. They may need to speak with you vendor, the building supervisor and find the practical completion reports that your vendor would have signed.
When is settlement?
haven't sent letter yet West, thought it was better I talk to them first. settlement on 16 oct
vendor and builder are the same.
vendor and builder are the same.
Oh I thought they different based on your first post. Yes contact them direct if you are going to be the first owner of the property.
You say there are no structual issues. I'd get the builder to fix only the more major problems you've mentioned, and fix the rest myself.
Use email where possible for correspondence with the builder.
Building reports can often make minor issues appear like they're major, especially if you've not come across too many of these before to realise this - a bit like a car inspection report.
Most importantly take note where you went wrong in this case. The BA and P and B inspector did what was expected of them.
You are in this situation (which doesn't sound dire, btw) because of you.
