Strata Management Sydney Elizabeth Bay FAQs

1. Do I need to engage a strata manager, or is it feasible for my Elizabeth Bay property to operate effectively without a structured strata management system? 

In many cases, having a strata manager is not a legal requirement, but it is highly recommended for efficient management of a building in Elizabeth Bay or any strata-titled property. While it is possible to function without a formal strata management structure, it can be challenging. A strata manager helps handle administrative tasks, enforce bylaws, manage finances, coordinate maintenance, and address disputes. Without one, these responsibilities fall on the owners or committee members, which can be time-consuming and lead to inefficiencies. Having a strata manager often simplifies operations and ensures compliance with strata laws and regulations, benefiting the overall well-being of the property.

 

2. What is the recommended frequency for consultations with my strata manager?

The frequency of meetings with your strata manager can vary depending on your specific needs, and the complexity of your property. In general, it's advisable to have regular contact, such as quarterly meetings, to discuss financial updates, maintenance issues, and any concerns. 

However, more frequent communication may be necessary for ongoing projects or when critical matters arise. Effective communication with your strata manager ensures that your property is well-managed, and potential problems are addressed promptly. Ultimately, the frequency of meetings should be mutually agreed upon to maintain transparency, and ensure the efficient operation of your strata property.

 

3. What are the average strata fees in Elizabeth Bay?

Strata levies in Elizabeth Bay vary greatly and are based on a number of factors, such as the size of the unit, the amenities offered, and the overall condition of the building. Additionally, Strata fees are ever changing. At Progressive Strata, each year, owners review the financial needs of the scheme, and decide what the quarterly levies will be for the year ahead.
