What is the definition of “Owner” for my project?

The Owner always refers to the entity which holds Title to the property. Most of the time, this will be a business name, and there will be a person that is associated with that company – this would be the Owner Contact.

Who the Owner is NOT:  

• A tenant.
• The Architect / Engineer (unless an employee of the Owner).
• The Owner’s Attorney.
• A contractor (unless self-building).
• Any other person not employed by the Owner.

HOWEVER, all of these people can act on behalf of the Owner when a TDLR Owner Agent Designee Form is completed and submitted to TDLR.
