Found a construction defect in your newly built or purchased home? We’re sorry you found one, but there is hope. You don’t necessarily have to spend money and do repairs yourself. You can likely start a claim and bring the builder to court.
There are some myths and misconceptions about construction defects out there so we wanted to clarify a few of them for you.
Myth: Your house’s value goes down with a construction defect.
Truth: You want to fix the defect before reselling occurred. You will have to disclose info about the defect to the future home buyer but your home won’t lose value if the defect was properly fixed.
Myth: Construction law protects construction companies.
Truth: Quite the opposite. Construction law was created because officials believed that homeowners needed protection from companies that might take advantage of them. Construction law holds companies and contractors accountable.
Myth: If you didn’t buy a warranty when buying the house, you cannot sue.
Truth: Just because you don’t have a warranty, doesn’t mean you have to deal with the construction defect. A construction defect lawyer can help you find out how you can sue even without a warranty.
