Key provisions and limits

  • The form is not filed in every state.

Quoting and selling notes

  • Settlement and subsidence claims after completion are typical construction defect allegations; review with residential builders.
  • Ask about soil reports, geotechnical engineering, retaining wall and grading work, and the share of residential versus commercial projects; underwriters in hillside and expansive-soil regions use these answers to decide between the broad and designated versions.
