WA Government Secures Deal to Resume Building 200 Stalled Nicheliving Homes

The agreement follows lengthy negotiations and includes a decade-long ban on Nicheliving's building registration.

The Cook government has brokered a deal with Nicheliving to address over 200 unfinished homes, ending a prolonged construction halt.
The agreement requires Nicheliving to drop its fight to retain its building registration, allowing customers to access indemnity insurance.
Commerce Minister Sue Ellery announced that Nicheliving's directors will not be able to apply for a builder's license for ten years.
Nicheliving customers, some of whom have faced homelessness, expressed concerns over the lack of accountability for the company's directors.
The deal could cost WA taxpayers tens of millions, as the government covers home indemnity insurance for affected homeowners.
