Christy Ferer Aspen
Christy Ferer, owns a home on East Cooper Avenue through a limited liability company, issuing Stuart Posnock for breach of contract. She alleges that 13 people stayed in the nearly $12,000-a-night home during Aspen’s “Peak Week” of Dec. 22-29, 2013, which exceeded the maximum of 10 people allowed in the contract.
Ferer is seeking $10,500, as the contract states that the renters are on the hook for $500 a night for each additional person over 10, wrote Ferer’s attorney, Matthew Ferguson of Aspen.
That dollar amount is based on a seven-day stay. Posnock, a San Diego resident and the CEO of one of the nation’s largest home-building firms, says the lawsuit is frivolous. He made counterclaims against Ferer that allege was constant agitation from a stream of maintenance people in the home during him and his family’s stay.
The court files show that Ferer, who also lives in New York City, agreed to rent her home for $7,000 a night from Dec. 15-22, along with a $15,000 security deposit. Ferer changed the dates to a week later, “Peak Week,” at the request of the family, which paid not only $7,000 a night, but also an additional $33,000 surcharge for that time frame, Posnock’s attorney, Richard Cummins of Aspen, wrote in the counterclaim filing.
The change upped the nightly rental cost to $11,714. But when they arrived, they found a maintenance technician and a cleaner or two who were there for several hours of work, Cummins wrote.
“In addition, there were hairs in the master bed and [Posnock] and family had spent literally the entire arrival time dealing with deficiencies at the residence,” the counterclaim filing says.
“As a result, there was a delay in obtaining ski rentals, and [Posnock] and family were unable to walk around town” because of the issues at the home. Among other alleged issues in the seven-bedroom, seven-and-a-half-bath residence were mothball odors.
One of the two fireplaces didn’t work, nor did an outdoor hot tub and the kitchen sink, the counterclaim says. The “first day was disastrous, and the family only has one or two-family vacations per year,” Cummins wrote. And the presence of a plumber on Christmas Eve morning disrupted the “normal family breakfast,” the counterclaim says.
