[CLC-Discussion] Question re: Residential Construction Contract Drafting and a Three Day Right to Rescind

[leslie.tomczak at akerman.com]

Good afternoon all!

We are reviewing a Florida residential construction contract for a general contractor who does home repair work (remediation work following a flood or other casualty, and then reconstruction work if needed).  Candidly, I don’t do that many residential contracts.  Does anyone know if the 3 day right to rescission found in Section 501.031, Florida Statutes and/or the 3 day right to rescission found in 12 CFR Sec. 226.15 applies to this type of work so that the general contractor would need to include certain notices of same in its construction agreements with homeowners?  Any input would be greatly appreciated!!
