You are entitled to inspect the property at any reasonable time during the week before settlement. Contact the real estate agent to arrange this inspection.
The contract of sale requires the seller to hand over the property in the same condition as when it was sold. If, during the final pre-settlement inspection, you find that something is damaged or not working as it was on the day the property was sold, you can request a repair. Check all the items listed in the contract are there and in the right condition.
