Buying and selling property isn't always that straight forward, but hey, as I say, there are always solutions. I talk to Grant Patten from Loan Market about how you buy potential problem homes such as non-compliant, leaky and the like; and if you are the owner if one of these, this will also give you hope. However, this type of property purchase is not for inexperienced first home buyers or those who haven't got deep pockets or experience it  is more for the seasoned purchaser or  investor, developer etc and as usual seek legal and or technical advice prior to making any property transaction.
