Latent Defects Insurance (LDI) is transforming the off-the-plan property market by offering buyers a 10-year warranty against structural and waterproofing defects in new apartments and their encompassing buildings. This insurance, purchased pre-construction by developers or builders, ensures that any issues arising post-completion are promptly addressed without the need to establish fault or negligence.
Incorporating Latent Defects Insurance into off-the-plan purchases not only safeguards buyers' investments but also promotes a culture of accountability and quality within the construction industry. As more developers adopt LDI, the overall standard of new developments is poised to rise, benefiting both buyers and the broader housing market.
