Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Jul 28, 2021 11:01 pm Hi Group members Hope all will be fine. I am planning to apply for a DB-U application soon in Victoria. I am aware that it is a conflict of interest and against the professional standards like Building Surveyors who cannot inspect their own houses. I would like to know that Domestic Builder unlimited (DB-U) can build his own house or is it is a conflict of interest? One builder told me that builder cannot build your own house and Bank will not finance. I tried to get this information from Building Act 1993 and Building Regulation 2018, but there is no information regarding the same. So I would like request you to please share your knowledge. Thanks Paw Re: Builder can build own house or conflict of interest 2Jul 30, 2021 11:47 am Paw One builder told me that builder cannot build your own house and Bank will not finance.

I appreciate your time and effort. Paw Hi Mofflepop, I would recommend finding a building designer to prepare plans, they should design to your specified budget. The benefit is you can tender the project out… 9 20426 I work with owner, he/she is my man on the ground and I instruct them when to visit the site and take photos and I have other tools in the bag. 4 15284 Thanks. I called VBA today and they said it was a Consumer Affairs issue, the old handball. Seems like the government organisations don't want to do their job at the moment. 2 7573 |
