I was friends with my neighbors. I didn’t literally test with an elephant but I was morbidly obese at the time and did quite a bit of jumping and furniture moving.

Joking aside, I would ask the inspector to test the building materials and widths of floors and ceilings. I assume there’s some standard performance that if you have 4 inches of concrete that’s bad but 12 inches is ok, or something like that.

When I bought my unit, I didn’t use an inspector but did talk to neighbors and my realtor had worked on multiple purchases in the building and had those accounts.
