The warranty book that was issued specifically for a particular home contains all the procedures to address a potential defect. Written documentation from the Homeowner in the format described in the warranty book must be sent to the Administrator, HOME of Texas in order to begin this process. This notice may be sent in writing to the administrator’s address or by email to warranty.resolution@homeoftexas.com. For convenience, resolution inquiries may be started online. Click here for the form.
If the Insurer is the Warrantor under the terms of the Limited Warranty, HOME of Texas, serving as the Administrator, may perform an inspection. Additionally, HOME reserves the right to perform an inspection at any time following receipt the Homeowner’s timely notice of request for warranty performance.
Mediation. In the majority of cases, the root of many disagreements is a breakdown in communication between the Builder and the Homeowner. Often, all it takes to get a problem resolved is for someone to take on the role of mediator and assist the other parties in arriving at a fair and reasonable agreement, based on the warranty standards provided. Before formal arbitration or costly litigation is used, HOME does its best to mediate disputes between Members and Homeowners. Mediation is an informal process involving the Homeowner, the Builder and HOME of Texas during the Builder’s period of responsibility. In this initial process, there is no charge to either party.
Arbitration. If the issue is not resolved during mediation, the next step is arbitration, which is a formal procedure to resolve disputes conducted by a neutral, independent arbitrator. Arbitrators used by HOME of Texas are experienced in arbitrating residential construction matters. The decision of the arbitrator under our programs is binding on all parties, including the Builder as well as the Homeowner, unless prohibited by law. Initially, the fee for the arbitration is paid by the Homeowner; however, the final decision on which party is responsible for the fee is made by the arbitrator.
