  • Essentially strata is a title that allows individual ownership of part of a property, such as an apartment or townhouse. You’ll own the apartment and also own a share in the remainder of the property called common property. Then there's also the Community or Neighbourhood title. It's not as common as strata, but we are experts in explaining these properties as well. Likely to be houses and everyone maintains their own.

  • Yes, even if the property is self-managed, ordering a strata report is crucial.

    Self-managed schemes might not always follow best practices in financial management or maintenance planning, and a strata report can help identify any issues or concerns that could affect you as a future owner.

    If you have a draft contract just send it through and we’ll find what we need.
