Don't Risk Your Dream: A Guide to Performing the Ultimate Background Check on Your Builder
You’ve spent countless hours dreaming about your new home—the perfect layout, the ideal kitchen, the finishes that reflect your style. But there's a huge hurdle between that dream and reality: choosing the right builder.
This is, without a doubt, the single most important decision you will make. The right partner can lead to a dream result, while the wrong one can lead to years of financial heartache, stress, and a home plagued with defects. The fear of ending up with a "dodgy builder" is a major source of anxiety, and for good reason. Online forums are filled with horror stories that can make any prospective home builder nervous.
Thorough research is your best defence, but it's often an overwhelming and time-consuming process. How do you verify licenses? Where do you find genuine client feedback? How can you check for financial stability or past legal disputes?
What if you could command an advanced AI to do the heavy lifting for you?

What Your In-Depth Report Will Uncover
This isn't a simple Google search. Our tool guides the AI to investigate and synthesise findings across the most critical areas, providing a comprehensive overview of your potential builder. The report will uncover:
- Licensing and Disciplinary Actions: Verify their official license status in your state and, crucially, check for any public records of disciplinary actions, suspensions, or cancellations against them.
- True Reputation & Client Feedback: The AI will scour reputable review platforms (like Google Reviews and ProductReview.com.au), building-specific forums, and social media to analyse feedback. It identifies common themes in both positive and negative comments, from communication and timeliness to quality issues and defect resolution.
- Financial Stability: It will search Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) registers for company history and look for any public records of insolvency proceedings, liquidation, or external administration involving the builder.
- Legal and Dispute History: The tool will search for publicly reported court cases, tribunal findings, or significant disputes against the builder.
- A Clear List of Potential Red Flags: Based on all its findings, the AI synthesises a clear, easy-to-read list of potential red flags or areas of concern, allowing you to see the risks at a glance.
