Golden Beach, FL · Miami-Dade County
Owner-Builder Permit Application
Application for a building permit allowing property owners to perform construction work on their own residence without a licensed contractor license.
What this form is
This form is for property owners who want to build or improve their own one- or two-family home without hiring a licensed general contractor. Florida law allows owner-builders to self-supervise construction work, provided the project is for the owner's own use and not for resale. The application requires proof of ownership and disclosure of all subcontractors involved in the project.
Who needs it
Property owners planning to build, renovate, or repair their own residence and seeking to act as their own contractor on the permit.
Why it needs a notary
This form must be notarized because the owner-builder affidavit contains a sworn statement that the applicant owns the property and will personally supervise all construction work as required by law.
