the linked article is bonkers:
Within months of construction, the two houses had sunk and slid toward the canyon the owners paid to overlook according to interviews and documents.
His house was still under warranty with the builder, Edgehomes.

so that’s just funny, but this…
The neighbors declined to speak to FOX 13 News. They cited a paragraph in their purchasing contract in which they agreed “not to disparage Seller in any public or private format.”
FOX 13 News asked Edgehomes if it would waive that clause. A company attorney said no.
incredible. and this article predates the collapse video by about 3 months. in the article the seller/builder is like “the city revoked the permit for the dwelling as unsafe, but we totally disagree with them. it’s fine.”
Literally in the public statement from the builder back in October:
We were disappointed by, and respectfully disagree with, Draper City’s decision to revoke the Certificates of Occupancy for these homes, which effectively forced the homeowners to move out and live elsewhere. The independent experts had confirmed the homes were structurally sound and that the helical piers we installed effectively stopped the homes from additional settlement/movement. Nevertheless, the City revoked the Occupancy Certificates, and we are doing everything we reasonably can to limit the resulting inconvenience and financial impacts to the homeowners.
