What should owner-builders in Victoria know about inspections and reports?
As an owner-builder you carry responsibility for the building work. The relevant building surveyor carries out the mandatory inspections for your permit, and an independent inspection is a separate check you commission for your own information. If you later sell the home you built, you may need an inspection report first: check the current requirements with the Victorian building regulator.
