    Arizona Builders Right To Repair Current Law Summary:

    Current Law Summary: (HB 2620; ARS §12-1363, 1361, 1364) Current laws on the books require a purchaser of a home to provide written notice at least 90 days before commencing legal action. This gives the homebuilder time to inspect, repair or replace the defect if it falls within the specifications of the warranty. Homebuilder has 60 days to respond to written notice which may include offer to replace, repair or offer monetary compensationSB 1311 is a similar statute that covers multi-family dwellings. If no resolution is met through alternative dispute resolution procedures and a civil lawsuit is filed, the seller’s insurance company must treat a notice of a dwelling action as a notice of a claim subject to the insurance policy without affecting available coverage under the policy

    Steel Cooling: Steel Costs Steadily Decline After Pandemic Price Shock

    May 12, 2026 —
    Steel prices have continued trending downward after several years of volatility, according to Gordian’s latest analysis based on RSMeans Data. After dramatic spikes during the pandemic-era supply disruptions, the market has gradually stabilized as supply chains improve and demand softens in some construction segments. However, selective volatility and tariff uncertainty continue to influence pricing across the sector. Key findings from the report include:
    • Steel prices declining: The national average price of structural steel fell to about $2,343.93 per ton in January 2026, down 5.38% from the previous quarter and 7.18% year over year.
    • Longer-term price correction: Steel costs have been trending downward since 2024 after earlier volatility driven by inflation, supply shortages and global demand swings.

The plaintiff sought class certification under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b)(2) and 23(b)(3) only as to its second, third, and fourth causes of action. Read the full story...
