The Home fee cost plus contract with contractor in San Jose serves as a binding agreement between the contractor and the owner for residential construction projects. This form includes key sections detailing the scope of work, the worksite, permit requirements, soil conditions, insurance obligations, and a process for changes to the scope of work. Additionally, the form stipulates the payment structure based on either the cost-plus method, where the owner pays the actual costs plus a fee, or a fixed fee option. It outlines consequences for late payments and includes warranty terms that limit the contractor's liability to defects in workmanship for one year. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, as it provides a clear structure for managing construction agreements and ensures that both parties understand their rights and responsibilities. Moreover, it protects the owner's interests by establishing guidelines for changing project scopes and addresses potential disputes related to payments and warranties.
