What is NHBRC Home Enrolment?

Your home builder needs to enrol your home prior to construction and not you as a home owner. Any person in the business of building homes is required by law to be registered with the NHBRC. In terms of the Act, any person in the business of home building must be registered with the NHBRC and renew their membership annually.
