My dad had an earthmoving business when I was growing up. Getting a building pad level to within an inch or two was normal business, and not as difficult as you might think using big scrapers. What's more important, however is the grade around the building. Many times he would have to redo a job where another contractor had "leveled" the site, leaving no grade for drainage. It's no fun grading a site AFTER the building is up.
Although a building pad needs to be level within a couple of inches from end to end, a terrace needs to be level within a few inches over a half mile or more. It takes a very good level just to shoot to this accuracy; most contractor's levels aren't up to the job. We used a quite expensive Leitz autolevel.
