    Building defects causing big problems By Adrienne Moore, KSBY, CA
    Homeowners in one Central Coast neighborhood say problems with leaky roofs, mold, and other faulty construction are the direct result of a greedy developer.

    More than a dozen homeowners in the Rancho Obispo subdivision in San Luis Obispo say the problems were caused by cheap materials used by their developer, Ventura-based RW Hertel and Sons.

    "One of the homes here had such high levels of toxic mold that Hertel had to buy it back from her," says homeowner Scott Barnes.  "They tested my home.  My home ended up with having toxic mold."
