Now in its third edition, Home and Condo Defects delivers education to homebuyers and owners, association board members, and community managers who believe there may be one or more construction defects in their home, condo, or common areas, or those who are involved in or contemplating a presenting construction defect claim to the developer. This book strives to simplify a complex legal area so that you, the reader, can gain knowledge and power.
Construction defect claims continue to rise as new projects come to the market. As the number of defect claims has grown, the law has become more complicated. Board members and community managers must turn to lawyers who have had to respond to this increased demand and expand their areas of expertise while still being able to explain to their clients, in layman's terms, what happens throughout this process. The successful construction defect lawyer must be a skillful negotiator; have a working knowledge of many other technical fields involved in these claims (architecture, civil engineering, geology, structural engineering, construction techniques, and cost estimating); and an understanding of new ways of solving consumer problems without always having to make use of the court system. Mediation skills and knowledge about developer insurance issues are important.
It is impossible to analyze each law as it applies. Instead, siblings Rachel and Matt and their father Tom Miller have attempted to summarize the law so non-lawyer readers will have a general understanding of it. Please note that the purpose of this book is not to provide legal advice or direction. Its sole intention is to educate consumers by providing pertinent information about what to look for and how to work with your lawyer and the legal system in a construction defect claims process.
This guide simplifies a complex legal area to empower the reader who is involved in, or contemplating, a construction defect claim against a developer. It's the best resource on the market-an all-in-one guide for owners, buyers, and board members.
If you believe you have a construction defect problem, you should contact a competent attorney before acting.
