Many homeowner associations and homeowners in California new home developments as well as condominum conversions are finding that the common areas of their communities and their individual homes have construction defects which are not attributable to the lack of ordinary maintenance. These construction defects include roof leaks, deck leaks, mold infestations, deteriorating streets, improper drainage, structural failure, inadequate soil preparation, faulty electrical wiring, insufficient insulation and sound proofing, inadequate equipment, cracked slabs, peeling paint, Chinese Drywall and other defects too numerous to list. The construction defects can be caused by poor design, poor construction, poor choice of materials or defective materials. See Common Construction Defects, Construction Defect Due Diligence Checklist, Construction Defect Glossary, and Common Construction Abbreviations.

Nearly all CC&Rs impose upon homeowner associations the duty to maintain and repair the common areas. Legally, this duty includes paying for the correction of defective conditions, including those set forth above. These repairs, which can be quite expensive, can be paid for in several ways:

First, the association can pay for the cost of repairs out of its reserves. However, in most cases the reserves are insufficient.

Second, the amount required to pay the cost of repairs can be obtained by specially assessing the individual homeowners or borrowing funds.

Third, the association may seek redress from the builder who in many cases is legally responsible for the cost of repairs.
