One of the observations that must be taken into account, and help preserve consumer rights, is the insurance of the building against hidden defects; which contributes and greatly enhances the use of materials that conform to the required specifications; which limits fraud, poor implementation and diligence in residential buildings, and this is directly reflected in giving additional life to the property and saving money that is wasted in maintenance.

There are variables that must be taken into account, and help preserve consumer rights.
