SB 5334: Common interest ownership

Concerning the Washington uniform common interest ownership act.

Summary

  • Modifies the implied warranties for construction of a condominium under the Washington Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act (WUCIOA) by removing the requirement that the condominium be constructed in accordance with all laws and instead requiring the building be constructed in accordance with applicable building codes.
  • Requires a purchaser to prove an alleged breach of warranty has or will cause physical damage, materially impairs the performance of some function, or presents an unreasonable safety risk.
  • Corrects typographical errors, statutory references, and inadvertent omissions from the initial adoption of WUCIOA.
