The short answer to your question is yes - the developer should be held liable for defects in construction. Be aware there are strict time limitations for how long you can wait before filing suit. Contractors have a surety bond ($12,000) however you must make a claim on that within two years after substantial completion of the home. You should contact a construction attorney specializing in handling construction defects as soon as possible so you can determine whether there is still time to file suit. Good luck to you - it is no fun to be living in a home with so many problems.
