Hi all who has experience in building
Got some special conditions on the contract I just received
-Owners to arrange engineer/geotechnical interaction to confirm once trees have been removed to confirm the engineering drawings
And
-Owner to arrange an engineer to review structural drawing once the easement details have been obtainedJust awaiting the builder for clarification but Anyone had similar experience on the building contract?
Looks like the builder wants me to make sure that the won’t need to pay extra for footings etc?Why wouldn’t they be invalid. First one is grammatically incorrect and ambiguous – what does it mean – do you need an engineer just to confirm that the trees are removed?

Further to what Terry has already said, you might want to include time limits on your conditions, and an indication of the consequence if the condition is not met.

I’d seek clarification. What exactly do they mean? For what exact purpose? And, as above, what time frame?
Clearly you know more about the details than we do from the brief description you have provided here. Anything that you’re not certain of in the contract you need to get straight back to them, which it sounds like you have done. I’m sorry; the ‘conditions’ don’t mean much at first glance!
