Terrace

Terrace is a locally owned and operated consultancy and strata management company. 

We consult to developers and bodies corporate throughout the life cycle of a strata scheme to make strata living everything it can be. When it’s done well, strata living offers community, connectedness, affordability and a low maintenance lifestyle, making strata units extremely appealing to busy young professionals and downsizers looking to simplify their lives. 

We draw on our extensive experience and technical expertise to collaborate with other professionals to optimise design and maximise return on investment by building communities within communities and making strata better. 

We navigate the complexities and legalistic framework of strata and translate the lingo into layman’s terms so that our clients understand their rights and obligations. 

We offer the full suite of strata management services for our bodies corporate, undertaking everything required of them by the Strata Titles Act 1998 and being the first point of contact for anything that arises.

Unlock the Benefits of Our Comprehensive Strata Development Solution

Setting up a strata scheme and establishing the body corporate can be a complex and time-consuming process for property developers. Our unique offering is designed to take that burden off your shoulders, allowing you to focus on your core business—developing high quality properties.

By partnering with us, you’ll benefit from:

  • Maximised ROI: Our expertise in designing effective strata schemes will help make your units more liveable and more saleable, setting you apart from your competitors to bring about excellent sales results.
  • Enhanced Reputation: In a competitive and small market, reputation matters. We’ll help you establish well-run strata schemes, adding value to your high-quality developments and enhancing your reputation with both buyers and industry stakeholders.
  • Simplicity and Certainty: Strata is complex and misunderstood. We draw on our extensive experience in the strata, property development and real estate industries to guide your decision making to ensure your strata schemes are effective and your bodies corporate are harmonious and functional.

The Key Elements of our Comprehensive Strata Development Solution

We provide a full suite of services to ensure your strata development is seamless and successful, including the following:

  • Effective Lot Boundaries: Lot boundaries play a crucial role in determining what is common property. We’ll collaborate with your land surveyor to establish boundaries that allow for the body corporate to budget for and fund the ongoing maintenance of the strata scheme. This is especially important for the upkeep of landscaping and painted exterior surfaces, the appearance of which significantly impacts on the overall value of the development and your long-term reputation.
  • Fair and Equitable Unit Entitlements: Unit entitlements determine how body corporate expenses are shared. We’ll create a schedule of unit entitlements that ensure a fair and equitable apportionment of expenses, thereby reducing the risk of conflict and again enhancing your reputation as a developer. This element of our package is critical if your project is a Staged Development Scheme and can save you thousands of dollars.
  • Custom By-Laws: Our custom by-laws are the cornerstone of a harmonious and functional body corporate. They allow for electronic decision-making, meaning that every owner has the opportunity to have a say in every decision made whether they are local, interstate or overseas. Critically, they also allow pets which would otherwise require body corporate approval.
  • Strata Insurance: We are insurance brokers specialising in strata insurance and claims management. We’ll arrange for a quantity surveyor to do an insurance valuation to shift the liability for insurance away from you, and then we’ll get quotes from Australia’s leading strata insurers. We’ll put cover in place when cover ceases under your builder’s contract works insurance, which will streamline the settlements of your contracts.
  • Budgets and Levies: We’ll prepare the budget and levies for expected expense for the first year in advance to show your buyers how affordable strata living is. These will be paid in full at settlement giving your buyer a year without further expense.
  • The First AGM: You are legally required to run the first AGM. We’ll do this with you while you are sole member of the body corporate, to put things in place ready for your buyers. This includes appointing us as the strata managers, after which we become the first point of contact for you buyers for anything to do with your strata scheme.
  • Defects: We’ll facilitate rectification of legitimate defects by liaising with between the owners or the body corporate and you or your contractors.
