CALIFORNIA LICENSED CONTRACTOR INFORMATION

OWNER-BUILDER DECLARATION – I hereby affirm that I am exempt from the Contractor’s State License Law for one of the following reasons:
I, as owner of the property, building or improving structure thereon, or appurtenances thereto, will do the work myself or through my own employees with wages as
their sole compensation. None of the structures, with or without the appurtenances thereto, are intended or offered for sale (Sec. 7044(a), Business and Professions
Code). NOTICE TO APPLICANT: In all actions brought in the Contractor's State License Law, proof of the sale or offering for sale of any structure by the owner-builder
within one year after completion of same constitutes a rebuttable presumption affecting the burden of proof that such structure was undertaken for purposes of sale.
Proof of the sale or offering for sale of five or more structures by the owner-builder within one year after completion generally constitutes a conclusive presumption that
the structures were undertaken for purposes of sale (Sec. 7044(c)(3), Business and Professions Code).
5
I, as owner of the property, building or improving structures thereon, or appurtenances thereto, will contract with a contractor(s) or subcontractor(s) licensed pursuant
to the Contractors' State License Law to construct the project. I will not construct more than four (4) single-family residential structures which are intended or offered for
sale within a calendar year, except that such limitation shall not apply if I contract with a general contractor for the construction (Sec. 7044(b), Business and Professions
Code).
6
I am a homeowner improving my principal place of residence, or appurtenances thereto, and the following conditions exist: (1) the work will be performed prior to
sale, (2) I have resided in the residence for the twelve months prior to completion of the work, and (3) I have not used this exemption from the Contractor's State License
Law on more than two structures more than once during any three year period (Sec. 7044(c), Business and Professions Code).
7
NOTICE TO APPLICANT: Sec. 7031.5 of the Business and Professions Code specifies that each county or city which requires the issuance of a permit as a condition
precedent to the construction, alteration, improvement, demolition or repair of any building or structure shall also require that each applicant for such a permit file as a
condition precedent to the issuance of a permit a statement which he or she has prepared and signed stating that the applicant is licensed under the provisions of the
Contractor's State License Law, or, if the applicant is exempt from the provisions of the Contractor's State License Law, the basis for the alleged exemption. Any
violations of Sec. 7031.5 by any applicant for a permit shall be subject to a civil penalty of not more than five hundred dollars ($500).

compensation laws of California, and agree that if I should become subject to the workers' compensation provisions of Section 3700 of the Labor Code, I shall forthwith
