My wife and I intend to purchase our first property in Fetcham. Conveyancing practitioner already chosen. The broker suggested that a survey is not necessary as the house was only built in 1997.

At the very least you should have a Home Buyer's Report. As the residence was built over a decade ago the property will be without a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report could suffice. The report should highlight any apparent issues and recommend additional investigation where appropriate. Where there are any indications of material issues get a comprehensive structural survey.
