2 President’s Message

I’d like to welcome all of our new members who joined during our Membership Drive in September.

Erin Wright If you’re a new member, my advice to you is that you will only get as much out of your membership as you put into it. So I hope you’ll flip through this month’s newsletter and find a way to get involved this month. A great way to start is to attend Coffee with TABA, which you can learn more about on page 5 of this issue.

And calling all exhibitors! It’s time for the Home Products Show Booth Draw. This year, you will not be able to automatically keep the same booth as last year, so if you have your heart set on a certain booth, be sure to attend the Booth Draw on October 19th.

I hope everyone is planning on joining us for the most popular TABA event - our Putting Par-Tee! Be sure to RSVP with TABA staff.

Builders mark your calendars for the TAB Contracts Class on October 31st. James Rudnicki is an expert on the TAB Contracts package and will have lots of important information about changes you need to know about. You will leave as a more informed, educated builder, one of your many benefits of being a TABA member. Be sure to RSVP! Finally, I’d like to thank everyone who donated supplies and funds for our fellow homebuilders associations that were affected by Hurricane Harvey. Your support was overwhelming and I appreciate each and every one of you for your generosity.

2017 President

Topic: 2017-2019 TAB Contracts Update Guest Speaker: James Rudnicki of Bush, Rudnicki, Shelton, PC This Class will introduce you to the newest version of the TAB construction contracts including. In addition to addressing new legislatively mandated notice requirements for homes built near military installations, many additions and improvements have been made to the 2017 - 2019 package, which include: • warranty parameters on foreclosures and rental properties; • clarification of applicable code standards and builder obligations; • recovery of certain attorney’s fees; • a technology disclaimer for smart homes; • revisions to the independent contractor agreements; and • updates to the Express Home Warranty to reflect current building practices. The end result is that the contracts are more clear and comprehensive than ever.
