Two reasons it's funny:

1. He'll never re-coop his losses from a lawsuit.


With lawsuits you'll never know which way it goes, but if the OP is in a
strong consumer state with strong consumer laws, OP has a good chance to
recoup, perhaps many times the actual lost. He could go after the builder,
general contractor, concrete contractor, permit department and the
structural engineer/architect who signed off the plans. All the above
entities are deep pockets with million dollar liability, errors and omission
insurance policies.


2. Should have been watching as it was being built.

City inspectors supose to do that for you.

Why is this funny? A house with code violations has reduced value on
the market, buyer should be compensated for his losses.
