Where and When: Model Homes in these Quadrant Homes developments
What: Informational leafleting telling potential homebuyers to "read the fine print" in the Quadrant Homes purchase and sale agreement. The leaflet's heading tells it all: "QUADRANT HOMES: MOLD IS YOUR PROBLEM!" Quadrant has been sued for alleged mold infestations. Its current purchase and sale agreement takes care of any mold problem by shifting it to the buyer-no matter what causes the mold or what damage results.
Who: Representatives of the Association of Western Pulp & Paper Workers
Visuals: Customers shocked when they learn about the risks of buying a Quadrant Home. Salespeople unhappy that the customers are being told about the "fine print" -especially because Quadrant does not stand by the representations its sales people make to innocent people looking for a home.
