TAB Contracts CD

With the demise of the TRCC, a major overhaul of residential construction contracts became imperative, making the updated 2009 Texas Association of Builders Contracts Package more valuable than ever. The updated package reflects the fact that the statutorily required warranties and performance standards ceased to exist as of Sept. 1, 2009, and includes provisions whereby the parties agree to the specific warranties and performance standards that have been in place since 2009. Along with removing references to the TRCC from previous contracts, the contracts integrate building performance standards, warranty provisions, and several new addendums including one for green building. A $299.99 (plus tax) two-year subscription to the package, which includes several residential construction and remodeling contracts as well as dozens of related addenda, saves builders and remodelers thousands of dollars in attorney's fees. Additionally, the subscription covers any revisions to the documents through Aug. 31, 2011. The TAB Residential Construction Contracts Package offers more value than ever and will continue to serve as the foundation for most residential construction transaction in Texas.
