Unnecessary Home Repairs For Seniors?

Nevada has a new constructions defects law - essentially a lemon law for homes. When a homeowner purchases a new home and defects are found, a Chapter 40 claim can be filed.

This piece from KVBC News 3 in Las Vegas is about how "inspectors" employed by law firms are doing free home inspections for homeowners and then filing Chapter 40 claims on their behalf. It's alleged that the inspectors are making up defects and the agreement signed by the homeowners prevents builders from being allowed to take action on alleged defects in the homes inspected.

What's more interesting is that the "home inspectors" who are doing these free inspections aren't even registered or licensed as home inspectors in Nevada. To read more, click here.
