There are protective measures that consumers can take to avoid damage to receive property with top construction vices or faults. Also because some defects are not apparent and can manifest as the resident is appropriating the place.
Lawyer specializing in real estate law, Cristiano Espindola says that in most of the cases where failures are identified, the contractor carries out the survey with the own resident, who, on occasion, can make observations about painting, cracks and / or finishes.
"The construction company already delivers the key and makes adjustments at the time but also place hidden vices that begin to appear after the person enters the property, as floor that begins to drop because it was not made a good settlement," he explains. In case detection construction defects, the attorney guides the resident citizen to report the problem to executing construction of the work.
If the company does not meet the request, the second measure is to look for consumer protection agencies - such as the Municipal Department of Protection and Defense of Consumer Rights (Procon) and the State Program of Protection and Consumer Protection (Decon) - for open complaint by finding and sound engineering technician on the case. The resident should only seek to resolve the situation in court as a last resort, as "consumer protection agencies attempt conciliation and more speed," advises attorney.
Still according to the expert, the first person to the last to acquire the property, has the right to demand repairs, provided that within the period provided for and provided there are no changes to the floor plan. (Ligia Costa)
