WA Q: We have invoiced one of our lot owners for a plumbing maintenance repair on a pipe that fed directly to their dwelling. The invoice is overdue. Can the strata company charge 11% per annum on unpaid accounts?
ACT Q: I need to make an ACAT application against another lot owner. My strata manager has refused to provide me with the lot owner's address from the corporate register. What can I do?
QLD Q: Our committee changed cleaners. Lot owners lack details on the decision process, costs, insurance, and whether two quotes were sought. What information should be available?
NSW Q: The agenda notice for our AGM noted a 20% increase in levies. I sent my proxy. When the levy notice was received, it was actually an increase of 40%. Is this lawful?
