Base on your description the plan places you at significant risk. By pulling the permits you are obligating to be the responsible contractor. I would not count on the builder or subs indemnifying you if you are sued. You should consult an attorney to discuss the specifics of this arragement and discuss methods of mitigating your risk.
Good Luck
