Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to Bill HB 2240 change how legal actions related to the development and sale of real property can be initiated. The updated language clarifies that actions or arbitrations based on contract cannot be brought against those involved in the design, engineering, or construction of real property. This change is important because it aims to provide more protection for developers and builders, potentially reducing their risk of legal claims and making it easier for them to operate in Arizona.
