HOME OWNER EXEMPTION ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The State of Massachusetts allows the homeowner the right under 780CMR 108.3.4 to
act as his/her construction supervisor. The state defines "Homeowner" as, " Person(s)
- who owns a parcel on which he/she resides or intends to be, a one or two family
dwelling, attached or detached structures accessory to such use and/or farm structures. A
person who constructs more than one home in a two -year period shall not be considered a
home owner."
The building department for the City of Northampton wants person(s) who seek to use
the home owner exemption,-ta act as their' own construction supervisor, to be aware that
by doing so you become responsible for compliance with state building codes and
regulations. The inspection process requires thatthe.building department be called to
inspect work at various stages, which include foundation /footings (before backfill),
sonotube holes (before'pour), a rough building inspection (before work is
concealed), insulation inspection' (if required) and a final building inspection. The
building department requires these inspections before the work is concealed, failure to
secure these inspections can result in failure' to obtain a certificate of occunancv
until the work can be insoected
If the homeowner hires other' trades to perform. work (electrical, plumbing & gas) the
homeowner will be responsible to make sure that the trades hired secure their proper
ermits in conjunction to the 'building permit issued, and that they get their required
inspections. Failure of the individual trades to secure the permits and inspections as
required can DELAY the project until such time as the proper permits and inspections are
made
