    Hi,

    I'm currently developing a property in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne.  I've put in a Town Planning application for 2 new townhouses.  I intend to engage a builder to build these once I have a permit and then sell them once they are completed.

    I know the Builder I engaged will need to have Building Warranty Insurance to cover me in the event of something happening (though from what I read the requirements to make a claim are so narrow it often doesn't help).

    However – after they complete construction and I sell them – are the purchasers then covered by the Builders Building Warranty Insurance and me being the developer am free from any liability???

    I can't seem to find any clear and concise information regarding this.  Thanks in advance.
