OWNER BUILDERS
Being an Owner Builder is appealing for Home Owners. It allows control and cost efficiency. However, there are challenges and issues if not fully prepared. Ask yourself these questions before deciding to be an Owner Builder:
- Can I interpret working drawings and structural design documentation and understand the language?
- Will I be available to supervise construction daily, and am I prepared for unexpected schedule changes?
- Do I have a sound knowledge of contractual and financial requirements for various trades?
- Can I effectively manage the flow of trades to enable a smooth construction program?
- Do I understand the types of hazards and liability that must be insured against before the commencement of construction?
