Palm Springs, Laguna Beach, Newport Beach & San Diego Construction Lawyer Discusses the Building Industry in California
If you are a general or sub-contractor or are employed in connected with the Construction Industry and work in any of the hard hit areas of Southern California such as Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Santa Ana, Anaheim, Palm Springs, Riverside, San Bernardino, Fontana, Fullerton, San Diego, Chula Vista, El Cajon, Temecula, Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, Redlands, Moreno Valley, Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Orange County, Desert Hot Springs, Cathedral City, Fontana, Moreno Valley, Ontario, Rancho Mirage, Indian Wells, Indio, Coachella, Thermal, Yucca Valley, Victorville, Rancho Cucamonga, Corona, Hesperia, Apple Valley, Big Bear, Corona or Joshua Tree, the bad news is there may be worse to come on the horizon.
California’s Construction Industry could be facing a perfect storm of monumental proportions as the credit crunch and delinquent construction and commercial real estate loans threaten to produce even less construction and more construction defect litigation.
It’s being reported with greater frequency, higher and higher rates of delinquency in payments of construction and commercial real estate loans. Now with the credit crisis and bank failures, it is being reported that banks are cutting off credit to builders and more and more contractors are being forced to declare bankruptcy or to go out of business.
As builders and subcontractors cut corners to make a profit on losing propositions, construction defect litigation is almost certain to rise. If the possible scope of this economic crisis comes to fruition, fewer of the contractors and subcontractors responsible for defects may be around to fix the problems.
Liability insurance for builders and contractors in California has already been tight and some contractors have looked at their policies only to complain that despite the higher deductible, they still offer spotty protection.
A spot check of defendants in construction lawsuits filed over the past few years finds a significant percentage of the defendants in such lawsuits may no longer in business. Whether it is the result of such lawsuits or the economic crisis and the housing slump can’t be determined. What can, however, be said, is that homeowners can no longer count on their contractor or subcontractors to be in business when problems are found in the construction of their homes.
While such builders may still have insurance which covers them for their defects, it can be hard for a homeowner’s attorney to find that insurance when the builder is no longer around.When a subcontractor or his insurer is no longer around to stand up for their mistakes, general contractors worry.
In the Coachella Valley, construction spending fell 41.4 percent in the second quarter of 2008 from a year ago. Home prices dropped 22.7 percent. New construction starts are off by 90 percent since the peak of market activity in the third quarter of 2004. Unemployment in the Inland Empire of California was at 9.2 percent in August 2008. The construction industry that at one point employed nearly a third of the Coachella Valley’s work force has seen its jobs cut almost in half.
Contractors who see the economic storm coming are cutting costs, selling the trucks and equipment they no longer need and just trying to hunker down until conditions improve. It is probably wise to cut back as much as they can because at last check, the wind speed of problems for this industry was increasing and as far as anyone can tell, the eye of the storm hasn’t even come close.

We’re hosting a party for the neighborhood and I need help with the invitations?
I wanted to write something catchy and witty on the invitation.
We’ve been living in the same neighborhood for about 4 years, yet we’ve never had the opportunity to meet our neighbors! We just finished a big Construction Project, and now that the house is ready, we’re ready to mingle!
I was afraid that the recipients of the invitation might find it odd that we’re now (4 years later) making an effort to get to know everyone, so I was hoping to add something on the invitation that’s ‘light and funny’ regarding why it’s taken so long to get everyone together!
Come on English majors, and those lucky people who just write extremely well! Please help!
We walk to get the paper in our night clothes,
Wave and honk to each other as we go to work,
and Occasionally fight over whose tree is whose.
Now it’s time to meet!
So come on ever and let’s eat.
lol I don’t know. I liked the first answer, though! It made me laugh.

In by gone days all a contractor had to do was give the customer good quality and good service and he/she would be set. Then set back and let your customers do your selling for you. They would tell a friend and then that friend would tell a friend. Your phone would be ringing off the hook. I remember as an Architectural designer some days I would have up to four people wanting to schedule appointments for designs. Those days are long gone! But Fear Not! Click Here For Help
