About The Owner Builder Club
Helping everyday Australians navigate their owner build with clarity,
structure and confidence.
Why The Owner Builder Club Exists
The Owner Builder Club didn’t start from a marketing idea.
It started from curiosity.
Anthony owns and manages a hire business servicing builders. Over time, he noticed more and more owner builders hiring from him. That raised a simple question:
What information is actually available to owner builders?
As he looked into it, it became clear that while there was information scattered across government websites and industry sources, there wasn’t one clear, structured place that simplified the entire process from start to finish.
Owner builders were often left piecing things together themselves.
So we decided to change that.
The Owner Builder Club was created to bring clarity to a process that can otherwise feel overwhelming – by organising the steps, explaining the requirements, and connecting owner builders with trusted providers.
Who We Are
We’re Anthony and Liz, a husband-and-wife team based on the Sunshine Coast.
Between us, we bring:
Decades of experience working with builders and small businesses
First-hand insight into how the building process works
A deep understanding of what owner builders struggle with
We don’t just talk theory. We’ve studied the systems, understood the requirements, and built practical resources designed specifically for owner builders.
This isn’t generic construction advice. It’s tailored, owner-builder-specific guidance.
What We Do
The Owner Builder Club focuses on three core essentials:
Owner Builder Courses
We guide you through what’s required in your state and connect you with a provider so you can complete your mandatory course with confidence.
Owner Builder Permits
We break down each state’s approval process so you understand exactly what’s required before you build and in what order.
Owner Builder Insurance
We help you understand the insurances that protect you, your site and your financial risk and make it simple to obtain a fast quote.
How We Help Owner Builders
Whether you're:
- Deciding if owner building is right for you
