New Law Gives Preferred Status to Associations When Calculating the Statute of Limitations for Construction Defect Claims Against Developers
On January 18, 2022, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy signed into law an amendment to the statute of limitations applicable to construction defect claims arising in common interest properties such as community associations, condominiums, and co-ops. While the law still requires a claimant to file its lawsuit within six years of the time it knew or should have known of the defect (N.J.S.A. 2A:14-1), it does not start the clock on that six years until “an election is held and the owners comprise a majority of the board.”
