[CLC-Discussion] Something We Should Be Aware Of?

[Gibbons, Michael]

Interesting stuff.  Shows the import of reviewing buyer's title report where such reservation would have to be noted as a title exception.  Problem is of course you are on the eve of closing at that point and refusing to close would likely place you at risk of losing earnest money deposit.   Remedy here is legislation requiring prominent disclosure in the Sales Contract of Seller's intent to retain mineral and underground rights.

Ladies & Gentlemen:
Maybe I am just not as aware as the average dirt lawyer, but reserving oil, gas & mineral rights under 10,000 new homes in Florida without notice? I understand this kind of tricky stuff in oil & gas country, but Florida? Must be thinking of minerals, too.

Subject: [CLC-Discussion] Spray Foam Insulation/Defective Product/Construction Defects

Is anyone receiving any complaints regarding defective spray foam insulation? The complaints may consist of spray foam insulation either being a defective product or being misapplied due to almost impossible instructions to comply with, including the  degree of humidity during application, the ambient air temperature, the chemical ratios to be mixed, etc.

I have received a couple in the last 30 days and wanted to gauge whether anyone practicing construction law is picking these cases up and how the cases are going.

Thanks.
