The problem I'm having is that no insurance companies actually provide cover whilst it's under construction phase (Tried Allianz, AAMI, QBE, and a few others). So how did every else do this? I believe part of the problem is because my address doesn't come up in the list when I go to apply online so I have to call up. Doing it online would allow me to get insurance as it doesn't ask you if it's under construction but technically you're not covered as it's 'under construction'. So I'm curious how people actually got their insurance and if it was done online, I wonder should anything bad happen if the insurance company will actually pay up or reject the claim as it's under construction. Your builder has got it wrong. You don't need to insure your house until the day you have your official handover (ie when you get the keys). Insurance during construction is up to the builder. $395 Fixed Priced Landscape Plans for DA M: 0435 127 244 | W: bluegumdesign.com.au | E: info@bluegumdesign.com.au Residential | Commercial | Industrial Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 13680Aug 09, 2016 1:26 pm @Brahma Bull: I didn't believe at first either as I found it ridiculous that it's now home owner's responsibility when handover has not been done and we don't even have the keys to the house. However, I questioned it and it's actually clearly stated in the NSW Home Build / HIA contract. So I really think that either 1, people are doing it online as their address comes up or 2, like me they assume that it's insured by the builder until handover. Time between PCI and handover is not that long and fortunately no one has been in a situation where something bad has happened in this period, therefore we never hear of any issues and this is just a very little known fact.
