Hello everyone.
I hope I’m posting this in the right place. We moved into our new building in June 2016. Like probably many others, we noticed some defects during the final inspection which we then documented in writing. Since then, not much has happened. Last week we actually received an invoice for the last outstanding payment to our construction company. I called them immediately and asked if they were out of their minds. I told them that as long as the defects are not fixed, they won’t see a cent from me. I also told them that since we moved in, it’s been almost impossible to reach our site manager and if we now released the last payment, even less care would be taken. Now my question is: Am I allowed to withhold the money and should I communicate this to them in writing?
Is there perhaps a sample letter for this?
Thank you very much in advance!!!
Best regards
Dennis
