construction defects; repairs; replacements; reports

Summary

The bill makes a written notice the first step a home buyer must take before filing a lawsuit over construction defects, except when there is an immediate safety danger. Sellers and their contractors must inspect the home, respond within 60 days with a repair, replacement, or compensation offer, and may involve their insurers. Courts can split the trial into separate phases for deciding if a defect exists and for assigning fault.
