Austagencies :: Specialise Home Warranty

Owner Builders who enter into a contract for the sale of their properties, within 6 years of the date of building or major renovation completion, must attach a valid Home Warranty Certificate to the contract. In essence as an Owner Builder you are guaranteeing the work you undertook if you decide to sell within the 6 year period.

Owner Builder Home Warranty Insurance covers losses incurred by the new owner through the death, disappearance or insolvency of the owner builder. This may include additional costs to complete the construction along with any defective works caused by a breach of statutory warranties.
