VOTE NO ON 201

Proposition 201 is not a good proposition. It will cause home builders more money thus hurting our economy and housing market more. Not to mention the fact that it will lead to more job losses. As a person who is already worried about my husband losing his job I do not need any more added reasons for home builders to lay off their employees. This proposition does not only hurt new home builders it also effects anyone who will ever sale a house, which is basically everyone.
Here are some more reasons to vote no:
1. It prohibits two parties from agreeing to resolve their disputes without going to court and hiring attorneys.
2. It forbids the seller of new homes from recovering any attorney's fees even if the case was frivolous or if they win.
3. It allows prospective buyers to file lawsuits so you do not even have to own a home to file suit.
4. It assures that all disputes, either large or small, go to court raising costs for everyone. If these disputes go to court, it assures us that homeowners will wait years until their issue is resolved or their homes get fixed.
5.With proposition 201 litigation is the only option. To make matters even worse, they eliminate the "Loser Pays court fees" statutes. Without that statute lawyers are encouraged o go to court. Everyone loses except the attorneys.

PLEASE VOTE NO ON 201!
