QLD: As an owner of a single lot, am I able to nominate myself, plus another owner, to the committee? I’d like to change the chairperson without losing my spot on the committee.
NSW Q: Without permission, residents in our complex planted seeds to grow food like sweet potatoes and chillies on the common property. How do we stop this?
NSW Q: There isn't sufficient lighting in the garage and common areas of our old building. Is the owners corporation required to improve this for the health and safety of residents?
QLD Q: Our body corporate only issues lot owners with a spreadsheet as a levy notice. The property is rented so is this a sufficient invoice for claiming levies at tax time?
QLD Q: Can a caretaker contract state the following: "First extension, the end date referred to in clause 1.4 shall be automatically extended for a period of five years"? Is this legal in QLD?
VIC Survey: Evaluation of the current management of repairs and maintenance work in medium-rise and high-rise strata-titled apartment developments in Melbourne
Researchers at the University of Melbourne
This research aims to understand how repairs and maintenance of common property in strata-titled buildings are managed. We want to gain insights into the repair process from identification to resolution. Additionally, we will explore how building information models (BIM) can be improved and utilized by OC Committees and building managers for better outcomes.
