The Florida Association of Realtors® has created an addendum dealing with the Chinese drywall issue. The addendum allows the seller to disclose any known Chinese drywall issues and alerts the buyer to their rights of an inspection to determine the presence of Chinese drywall.

The first Chinese drywall lawsuit begins this month and here is some good information: http://www.chinese-drywall-answers.com/. People living with Chinese drywall have suffered eye, respiratory, and sinus problems that may be linked to the gases emitted from defective Chinese drywall that produce a sulfurous odor and causes metals—air conditioning coils, silverware, jewelry—to corrode. Some 500 million pounds of Chinese drywall was imported into this country since the late 1990s, impacting about 100,000 homes.
