http://www.constructiondive.com/news/co-constructi...A new construction defects law that could revive condominium development has passed the Colorado House unanimously and is expected to gain Senate approval as well, according to CBS Denver.The new legislation would reverse new-development obstacles contained in the existing law, such as a homeowners association's (HOA) ability to sue condominium developers without first obtaining homeowner approval.Developers say the current law has led to "frivolous" lawsuits that have all but halted condominium development in the state.

The list from the property inspector primarily focuses on defects (defective water heater, etc) and the list from the property manager primarily focuses on cosmetic issues (property flow, paint colors, etc.).

They may be concealing defects.3.

I believe trustees was claiming defect of sale process, and the plaintiff claiming lender and trustee miscommunication was not a defect of the foreclosure process.

I watched his shows in amazement years ago when he would tell his contractor, "just cover it up" when defects were found in his houses.

And the problem here in California is that the law actually says if someone dies in a home then it's considered a material defect and must be voluntarily disclosed to any prospective buyer and/or tenant if the death occurred within the past 3 years.

For example, my lease states: “Tenant shall be charged for repair of drain blockages or stoppages, unless caused by defective plumbing parts or tree roots invading sewer lines.”

No having read every post, forgive me if I'm repeating but I'm pretty sure liability works something like this: If you KNEW about a defect which then causes damage, you are liable, but ONLY if you didn't make efforts to rectify it in a suitable amount of time.

They are selling you defects for premiums.  

Do they know is the property has defects or is it ready to occupy?
