What other builder due diligence should I complete?

Regulatory searches should form part of a broader assessment.

Depending on the project, consider checking:

• builder licence and registration
• ABN and ASIC company information
• appropriate insurance
• home warranty or domestic building insurance requirements
• references from previous clients
• previous completed projects
• financial capacity where appropriate
• proposed project team
• current workload
• tender qualifications and exclusions
• proposed subcontractors
• contract terms
• programme
• previous disputes or regulatory action.
