How to check any Chinese-speaking builder

Licence: check the builder’s NSW licence number and the company that holds it with Service NSW, and make sure the same company signs your contract.
Insurance: for work over A$20,000, ask for the home building compensation (HBC) certificate before you pay a deposit, and check it with Service NSW.
Completed homes: ask how many homes the builder has completed, where, and counted how; AUD Build counts by occupation certificate date and publishes the count by area.
Same drawings, same scope: ask every builder to quote on the same drawings and compare inclusions line by line.
Language: confirm who on the team will explain the contract, variations and site decisions in your language.
