UNLOCK THE BENEFITS OF OUR COMPREHENSIVE STRATA PROPERTY 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 lifestyle and high quality property, and enduring legacy.

We collaborate with property developers across Hobart, Launceston and Devonport. Our property developers have benefit from our expertise with:

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 PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT SOLUTION

We provide a complete suite of services to make your strata property development seamless and successful — covering everything you need from planning to ongoing management.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

We’ll facilitate rectification of legitimate defects by liaising with between the owners or the body corporate and you or your contractors.
