www.FocusOneAppraisal.com – The Miami Heral reported that a federal court ruled in favor of a Louisiana couple whose home that was built in 2006 had defective Chinese drywall.
The couple was awarded about $164,000 to replace the drywall and damaged appliances. The manufacturer is a German company which might appeal the ruling. The ruling can signal a change in direction for many of the Florida drywall cases.
If your planning to buy or rent a house which was remodeled in the past 5 to 10 years, you need to make sure they didn’t use the defective Chinese drywall. Some signs to look for is a rotten eggs odor and corrosion to major appliances particularly the coils of the central air conditioning system.
