Consumer Building Guide NSW- Things To Look Out For

By Michael Como | June 9, 2013 |

Be wary of:

1. A salesperson, builder or tradesperson who encourages you to sign a contract quickly to avoid a price increase. This is usually just a sales pitch.

2. A builder who suggests you get an owner-builder permit while they organise all the building work. This can be a ploy by a builder who does not have the right kind of licence, or cannot get home warranty insurance. Sometimes, it is simply to avoid responsibility. If you become an owner-builder, you take on added responsibilities and place yourself at greater risk if the work is not done properly. As an owner-builder, you may be held accountable for statutory warranties provisions for subsequent purchasers of the property.

3. A builder or tradesperson who gives you a quote that seems extremely low compared with others you have received. It is worth asking yourself – are they providing such a low quote just to get the job? Are they cutting corners that could impact the quality of the job?

    It’s actually very complicated in this busy life to listen news
    on TV, thus I just use web for that reason, and take
    the most up-to-date information.

    Great blog you have here but I was curious about if you knew of
    any message boards that cover the same topics talked about here?
    I’d really love to be a part of online community
    where I can get comments from other experienced individuals
    that share the same interest. If you have any recommendations,
    please let me know. Cheers!

    I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your
    thoughts before writing. I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting
    my ideas out there. I truly do take pleasure in writing
    but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are wasted just
    trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints?
