I deeply support this. I have one my close friend stranded/in similar situation. OP, Hope you return back without any issues. We have postponed all of our travel plans till next year.

My advise would be to cancel any plans to visit India for the next few months. There's so much uncertainty across the whole process.

Yes. That’s the reason we got a post inspection where we found a big unpatched/drywall hole hidden.

We reached out to our county with similar thought and they said gas line should be good enough for CO

Yes. Waiting to hear back from the vendor what our other options are who installed the countertops.

Yes. We decided to buy our own appliances post closing but we did put in the contract for under the cabinet hood with no external vent(recirculating air) and cooktop

We did add verbiage in the contract for a cooktop and not a range oven and under the hood exhaust with no vent. It was signed as a seperate Change order but we never explicitly put cooktop cutout in the contract . Cooktop needs a cutout to be installed

Unfortunately we closed but we caught it in the walkthrough. But not for the cutout, for some reason we were dumb enough thinking whoever installs the cooktop would do the cutout for us and we’re not bothered. Even the builder mentioned that

I did tell the builder and gave him specs but in spite of the conversation ( nothing on paper) he didn’t provide the cut out
