Property Inspections Can Avoid These!
“Every silver lining has a cloud”
People tend to live in the here and now and not think of the future and this applies especially to trees and their placement in the environment. So when it comes to the planting of that oak tree in the middle of the pocket handkerchief front lawn or the installation of that line of Lemonwoods in the 15cm of lawn between the driveway and fence, a bit more thought to how big your trees are going to grow would prevent many of the conflicts between growing, expanding living trees and hard, inflexible, immoveable structures and landscaping. Here are some examples that need little explanation. In all cases a property inspection could have identified the risk and offered options or even allowed the problem to be avoided.
Not the tree creating the problem: builders cut off roots on one side of the tree and built a concrete wall, guess what happens next! 
Get a building inspection first! 
Different tree, same site 
Crack in path from small tree 
Wall leaning but intact 
The contest between Oak and wall 
Wall lost! 
Too late?
Not for a building inspection.
Another wall bites the dust
