For buyers of freestanding houses in Newcastle, building orders are rarely a concern unless the property itself has an order. They are more common in strata buildings. For unit buyers, check whether any building orders relate to the common property of the strata scheme, as owners corporations can pass special levies to fund rectification works that are disclosed in the orders but not always in the strata report financials.
