Subcontractors Beware

An Illinois appellate court has held that buyers of residential property may maintain an action against subcontractors who provided labor in the construction of their home, if there is a defect in their home that makes it not suitable for its intended purpose as a residence. Sienna Court Condominium Ass'n v. Roszak/ADC, LLC, No. 122022, 1st Dist. This court found that homeowners may bring an action against the subcontractors, if the general contractor is insolvent, even if the GC maintained a warranty fund.
