Yes. As a strata manager we help schemes both residential and commercial deal with changing property demands and shifting service requirements as a suburb grows.
Yes we can. Clear communication is a key part of great strata management. Streamlining notices, meeting information, updates and day-to-day correspondence keeps owners and residents are better informed about what is happening in the property.
Strata management services typically include managing administration, facilitating meetings, overseeing insurance, coordinating common property repairs and maintenance, financial management, including setting budgets, levy administration and record keeping. Managers also progress the management of complaints, guide legislative compliance and offer advice to help the owners corporations meet the broader needs of their building and community. The exact scope can be tailored to what your owners corporation needs and is reflected in the management agreement.
Changing strata managers usually involves reviewing your current agreement, passing a resolution at a meeting and giving the required notice to the current manager. This is then followed by a transition process that transfers records, financial information and key documents to the new manager. We can help you with this transition to ensure minimal disruption for your owners corporation.
