Owner Builder

Owner builders come from all walks of life, some with little or no building experience, but all seeking the satisfaction of building or renovating their own home. Statistics from the Building Commission indicate there were 27,596 permits issued to owner-builders during 2006, but the proportion of owner builders who enrolled in training programs was minimal. Some owner builders start off with the best intentions but find the task overwhelming or realise they do not have the necessary knowledge and skills to manage their project to completion. This intensive face to face course introduces students to the complexities and challenges of becoming an owner builder. The course is ideal for those considering building, extending or renovating. Topics include: Finance, Design, Site conditions, Planning, Materials, Costing, Site Supervision, Insurance and Permits.
