Hi All,
I have just started reading up on the requirements of getting an Owner Builders Certificate thinking I would need it if I was to manage components of a renovation worth over $5000 (over $12 000 requires completion of a course first).
Of interest was the following things that need to be demonstrated to Fair Trading before an Owner Builder Permit can be issued:
1) Over 18 years old - I can just get by on that one ,
2) Own or have an interest in the land / property - got that covered,
3) Do or intend to live in the completed home.
What if you don't intend to live in it? EG - buy and IP, want to manage the reno work and retain it as an IP but don't intend to live in it?
Does anyone know what sort of permit you need to get to do this if not an Owner Builders Permit?
Thanks, MF35
