Brisbane.Gold coast.Sunshine coastTerry,
Thanks to you too. It really just centres around the licensing issue, can get around everything else now, but technically- the license is the one concern.
cheers

Brisbane.Gold coast.Sunshine coastBrenda-
Thanks, but have spoken with my accountant too. The only possibility is for someone to sub contract to me. But then they would technically have to be licensed too.
I think I know what business I am going to go into:
Manufacturing Red Tape.
All the best everyone, thanks for your input.
Jarrod.

Brisbane.Gold coast.Sunshine coastRichard,
I have been in touch with BSA. What is with the $11,000 figure? It is $1,100 work for others(public) or only $6,600.
Thanks all for your input. Yes- red tape. It is definitely not a matter of “just doing the course”. I spoke to one very helpful lady at BSA and she explained everything to me. I think I would have to spend the rest of my life completing courses if I truly wanted to renovate “by the book”. Check this out: These are all of the license types that exist for the BSA. They have certain requirements and criteria. It’s quite a list:

Here’s the link to BSA and some more of that information:
http://www.bsa.qld.gov.au/Home/BuildersContractors/LicensingInformation/
Lots of information on the site.
It took me a couple goes over th ephone to get in contact with someone who wanted to take the time to speak with me, but the lady was very helpful.
As for OFT queensland- well as I mentioned in an earlier post, they didn’t really have much to say, basically told me to talk to BSA, which, was fair enough.
Thanks,
Jarrod.

Brisbane.Gold coast.Sunshine coastOffice of fair trading’s response_ I think I had best be making some other calls:
Dear Jarrod,
Thank you for contacting the Queensland Government.
With regard to your enquiry, under the Property Agents and Motor Dealers Act 2000 all property developers who complete more than 6 residential property sales in any 12 month period must be licensed.
You will need to contact Smart Licence on 1300 363 711 with regards to any licences you may require for carpentry, plumbing etc.
I hope that this is of assistance.**********
I gave them a fairly detailed explanation of the plans too, oh well, still many a call to make.Jarrod.

Brisbane.Gold coast.Sunshine coastHave been in touch with Office fair training QLd, hope to hear from there within the next couple days. Will be talking to my accountant tommorow and BSA to see what they come up with.

Yeah exactly! You are spot on. It will never be major building works, but that is the issue, yes.

Brisbane.Gold coast.Sunshine coastYeah, exactly, paying someone $20,000 for the first year where they would acquire a stack of knowledge to work for me would be great. And the fact that they alone could possinly work on say three properties in one year with me and easily add more than $40,000 in value(themselves) to those total properties. I think I will be giving the office of fair trading a call next week and see what they have to say.

Brisbane.Gold coast.Sunshine coastHey Brizza,
I posted my story a page back. I myself had no help from anyone. I worked from a young age, studied and acquired knowledge from a young age. I bought a small townhouse/unit before the last “boom”, renovated it and made a wad a couple years later. Had a couple other properties in between. Back to one now. Had to be a real tight arse for a couple years, but hey, its paid off. It has allowed me to try my own business too, but not enjoying that as much as renovating, so considering going back to full time renovating- will live off LOC while I renovate and hopefully up, up and away again.
I have almost gone under a couple of times, but not quite. Enjoy it immensely.
What is your story Brizza, are you into it?
Jarrod.

Brisbane.Gold coast.Sunshine coastThanks heaps for that Tools.
I completely understand the differences between contractors, employees, apprentices etc. as I currently run my own business as well as do the renovations. But the renovations are a different set-up. With my business I am licensed to do the work and I am responsible for the work carried out by my employees.
But the main issue that I am wondering about with the renovations with is licensing and responsibility. I am not a licensed or registered builder, tiler, painter, plumber, roofer, renderer, landscaper etc. therefore I thought I possibly should not be employing someone to carry out those tasks under my supervision. Hence, I thought someone subcontracting to me instead may eleviate that problem??
Thoughts please. Thinking about getting in touch with Office of fair trading in Queensland and the BSA. Really just the legality of work that concerns me. I set very high standards and have much knowledge in what I do, all work we do is to the rules and standards- but whether we can do it legally is another question.
thanks.
Jarrod.
