A system has been created which allows some corporate/public new house builders to avoid accountability and responsibility for those houses they produce which are shoddy or defective.  My corporate/public new house builder was given the benefit of the doubt and entrusted with the opportunity, "to do the right thing."  My corporate/public new house builder, experienced in matters of this type, chose another course of action.  Perhaps recognizing their ability to stonewall, and sweep under the carpet, any disgruntled customers who got less than what they paid for.  There was very little opportunity for the corporate/public new house buider's behavior to receive the public attention it deserved, nor very little economically viable recourse for the cheated new house buyer to pursue in an attempt to be made whole.  Fortunately, the Internet is available for disclosures to be made for the benefit of all new house shoppers who may face a similar fate.

Very interesting. another avenue for exposure I didn't think about.  I might just have to do something like that. Thanks

Would like to see more people documenting their home's defects as well as correct construction methods and posting it on You Tube and Google Video.  AOL also has video now.
