If you sign a build contract for your new home – whether it’s $500,000 or even $7500,000 or more – the QBCC only protects you for $200,000 if something goes wrong. That leaves families massively exposed.
At Builder Brokers, we don’t accept that. 💪
We’re fighting to close this gap and bring in a real insurance solution to protect Queensland homeowners properly.

Would you trust the QBCC to protect your home?
Let’s say you’ve signed a contract for a $500K or $1.2M home. You’d expect the regulator—the QBCC—to have your back, right?
But when things go wrong, the signal to the QBCC often lacks clarity, resolution, and protection. Here are three real examples raising serious doubts:
- A nightmare granny flat turned retirement tragedy
A Caboolture couple spent nearly $300K on a granny flat riddled with 28 defects—so bad it was “not even handyman standard.” The QBCC’s response? They only partially accepted the claims. Because the builder liquidated, the regulator couldn’t enforce repairs. The homeowners were left sidelined, and advised to take their case to QCAT instead.

Over 600,000 insurance policies were issued by the QBCC for residential builds—including apartment renovations. Yet too many homeowners were unknowingly ineligible because their buildings exceeded three storeys. The QBCC admitted they lacked the resources to verify eligibility, so they simply relied on contractors’ info—leaving many with “worthless insurance.” Courier Mail - From within: staff say it’s a broken system
A former QBCC staffer described a workplace plagued by overwork and poor training, where unqualified employees were pressured to make rushed decisions—and customers paid the price. “The process is a joke… once a decision is made, it’s virtually impossible to get it reversed.” News.com.au
And it’s not just fatigue—tragically, a recent in-house suicide has highlighted deeper systemic issues. Despite promises of change, employees report persistent bullying, burnout, and little real improvement. News.com.au
Here’s the question:
