I understand a frequent practice of unlicensed persons is to have the property owner obtain an "Owner-Builder" build- <br />in"g permit that erroneously implies that the property owner is providing his or her own labor and material personally. l, as an <br />Owner-Builder, may be hetd liable and subject to serious financial risk for any injuries sustained by an unlicensed person and <br />his or her employees while working on my property. My homeowneis insurance may not provide coverage for those injuries.

I also understand my failure to abide by these laws may subject me to serious financial risk.p" <br />/ /, L I understand under California Contractors' State License Law, an Owner-Builder who builds single-family residential <br />Vructures cannot legally build them with the intent to offer them for sale, unless a// work is performed by licensed subcontrac- <br />tors and the number of structures does not exceed four within any calendar years, or all of the work is performed under contract <br />with a licensed general building Conkactor. <br />DNht/4_A.
