Pulte Homes National Warranty

SECTION 8: Attached Homes 8.1 Scope of Limited Warranty for Attached Homes For homes that are physically attached to other homes, this Limited Warranty includes coverage for both the portion of the home owned exclusively by you and the building common elements. Building common elements are those elements and property that are part of the building or structure in which the home is located, and (2) either owned in common by all of the owners in the building or owned, insured, or maintained by an owner’s association. Building common elements may, but do not always, include items such as walls, foundations, and roofs. However, building common elements do not include items such as clubhouses, exterior walkways, streets, swimming pools, and recreational buildings. 8.2 Limited Warranty Coverage Period Commencement Date for Building Common Elements Unless otherwise required by law, the Limited Warranty coverage period commencement date for building common elements will begin on the date title to the first home in the building is transferred to the first homeowner in that building and end on the expiration date of the applicable Limited Warranty coverage period.

8.3 Filing a Limited Warranty Claim (A) Component other than building common element. You may make a Limited Warranty claim for construction defects in a component of your home that is owned exclusively by you and not maintained or insured by the owner’s association. (B) Building common elements. Unless otherwise required by law, claims that a building common element has a construction defect must be made by the owner’s association, and may not be made by an individual Homeowner. If you believe a building common element has a construction defect, you should inform your association. Although you may contact us to report a construction defect, this does not change the fact that the association, through its board of directors or a validly elected or appointed officer, is the appropriate party to submit, process, or settle claims related to building common elements.
