Our goal at LookUpStrata has always been to hopefully make everyone's day a little easier (both lot owners and strata managers). It was fantastic to read a LinkedIn post from one of our WA Strata Manager Contributors about the practical applications of the content we push out. Thanks for the feedback Jordan Dinga from Abode Strata:
"Today at a Zoom AGM we were deciding the best way forward with pest inspections. An owner quickly found a suitable best practice using LookUpStrata Pty Ltd - making their life and my life just a bit easier.... A truly amazing community for sharing so many complimenting industries knowledge! #thankyou"

NSW Q: The Owners Corporation is undertaking remedial waterproofing on a common property rooftop terrace which is included in our title. They have asked us to move our large pots and spa. Shouldn't this be there cost?
SA Q: 30+ years ago, the developer put the visitor parking under a huge heritage tree. If an accident occurs, are strata liable if we fail to move the car park?

NSW: Annual reporting for strata schemes
The NSW Government wants to better understand the needs of the strata sector. To achieve this, owners corporations would need to report on and verify key information each year. The information to be reported covers basic details about the scheme as well as some core building, safety and management information. New regulation asks strata schemes to provide key information.
Have your say and complete a survey about the proposed new annual reporting for strata schemes.
