If a builder offers an enhanced protection agreement, the builder may choose to be subject to its own express contractual provisions in place of the provisions set forth in Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 896). If an enhanced protection agreement is in place, Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 896) no longer applies other than to set forth minimum provisions by which to judge the enforceability of the particular provisions of the enhanced protection agreement.
Notes
Allows a builder offering an enhanced protection agreement to elect its express contractual provisions instead of the statutory residential-construction standards. When such an agreement is in place, those statutory standards cease to apply except as the minimum benchmark for determining whether the agreement’s particular provisions are enforceable.
