Real Estate Marketing, Inc. and Robert T. Mayes, f/d/b/a First Lexington Company (“First Lexington”) built and sold the house in question to Michael and Diane Carey (“the Careys”) on September 1,1986. The Careys sold to the respondents, Michael and Kim Franz (“the Franzes”) on November 13,1989. As stated in First Lexington’s brief, the Court of Appeals has held that “a person who buys a house from its original owner may sue the builder of the house for breach of an implied warranty of habitability, even though there is no privity of contract between the subsequent owner and the builder.”
