The buyer normally pays for all inspections as part of his due diligence when finalizing the purchase of a home.
Added: the parties are free to contract any terms and conditions of the sale, which usually identifies which party will be responsible for any inspections. For example, in a commercial transaction, it would not be uncommon for a specialized inspection to be split between the parties.

Why would 3 toilets on a septic system in a new home consistently block whenever solid waste is flushed?
it is more than likely that your absorption trences are not working so the effluent is not draining from the outlet of your septic tank some trenches only last 2 to 3 years if the soil is clay. or it may be the drain has been laid to flat from the toilets to the septic tank. flush the toilets and look down the inspection openings on the lid of the tank if it flows into the tank it is not your drain but the trenches on the outlet of the septic tankANS 2 - It's possible you have a blockage between house and first septic pit. Pull the cover and watch the inlet tube as someone flushes. If water doesn't gush right out, you definitely have a blockage between there and house. ( I'm assuming you take care of your septic system, and it it does not need to be pumped - or else a full tank will be the problem. )
Where on the septic tank do you install a septic tank vent?
The "septic system vent" you are referring to is not actually attached to the "tank" (that would be the buried, holding chamber in your yard) at all. It is attached to the plumbing in the residence before the septic system. If you look at the HowStuffWorks page, you will find a diagram showing where/how the vent works. Due to the way the septic tank produces gases, caused by the breaking up of the bacteria in the tank. Filters and drain traps are put into the houses plumbing system that is designed to hold water in the lower loop and block the gases from flowing back into the house. Most houses on a septic system will have the vent pipe(s) on the roof of the house and this is where these gases are released, rather than going back into the house. Now obviously, if you have gases coming into your house, you got a problem and should definitely consult a plumber

What happens when a septic system fails How can I tell?
The drainfield is usually not functioning adequately when a septic system malfunctions. When a septic tank overflows, the effluent might overflow into the drainfield and block the pipes. This produces backups in the house's sinks and toilets. Slow draining toilets and drains, sewage odor, moist area on or near the drainfield, or tainted well water are some of the other indicators.
