How to Create A “Best Case” Repair Program
Board members of newly constructed condominiums often find themselves battling a sponsor over construction defects, leading many to wonder why does this happen so often? Each building is different, but RAND Engineering & Architecture’s president, Stephen Varone, and engineer Roger Krupp point to several reasons why these defects seem to occur frequently. For boards figuring out how to address what needs to be fixed, Varone and Krupp offer some real-world solutions on how to take an expensive critical problem and turn it into an affordable nuisance. Habitat’s Carol Ott conducts the interview.
