520			_aReviews recent case law concerning whether or not a builder or consultant owes a duty of care in negligence to the subsequent purchaser of a property who suffers economic loss as a result of latent defects. Concludes that a claimant showing reasonable reliance on a certificate can succeed but that a claimant relying on a defendant's acts can only recover losses to others and their property. The negligent statements of construction professionals in such circumstances are, however, more dangerous than their negligent acts.
