Just wanted to ask if anyone has had a 'Home building contract' through the office of fair trading to cover off building / renovation works...I am trying to understand what it's benefits are / usage is for..?

The HIA contract is totally biased towards those that fund the HIA; builders.
Signing a HIA contract puts all the power in the hand of the builder. You're basically saying, here's my money, I trust you.

It's the sign of a good builder if that's the contract they would like to use. May I ask who the builder is?
