34 Days to go…NSW Home Building Legislation Changes

1 December 2014 the home building legislation in NSW will change. The changes to the legislation may mean that some owners corporations will lose all of their rights to make claims for building defects.

  • 34 Days until 1 December 2014!
  • Do not get caught out!
  • The time to act is now!
  • Have your buildings inspected by a building consultant to check for defects!
  • Avoid losing your rights to make a building defect claim!

At JS Mueller & Co we work with a number of reputable building consultants and engineers. We can organise a building inspection for any building that you manage to check for defects before the 1 December deadline.

But you must act quickly otherwise you may run out of time.
