MGR Building Group — Owner Builder Support
What is Owner Builder Support?
Owner Builder Support offers expert guidance for individuals choosing to manage their own building project, whether it’s a new home, extension, renovation, or garage. Acting as an owner-builder can provide greater control and potential cost savings—but it also comes with important responsibilities and legal requirements.
In Victoria, anyone undertaking domestic building works valued over $16,000 must obtain an Owner Builder Permit through the Victorian Building Authority (VBA), and may also require a Certificate of Consent. Owner-builders are legally responsible for supervising works, obtaining building permits, engaging registered trades, and ensuring compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC) and other relevant standards.
Our support ensures that you’re not navigating this process alone. We help you manage risk, stay compliant, and complete your project efficiently and confidently.
