I noticed in two different high end condos that the grout in shower stalls
are not sealed by the builder. Is this a common practice or just isolated
occurrence?

Common practice in my area . . . but they usually suggest that the
homeowner do so.

I had kitchen tile installed today, as it happens. They're coming to
do the grout tomorrow. They told us that we are to apply the sealer
ourselves after the grout has had a few days to cure. They are
providing it. It's apparently a spray.
