A change to Section 106(6) of the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015 has significantly extended how long owners have to make a claim for common property defects and it's important to understand it applies retrospectively.

What changed:
✅ The claim period for damages against an owners corporation for common property maintenance and repair failures has extended from 2 years to 6 years
✅ The 6-year window starts from when the owner first becomes aware of the loss, not necessarily when the defect occurred
✅ This applies retrospectively, meaning it can affect existing or ongoing matters, not just new claims going forward

Why this matters for owners corporations:
This is a meaningful shift in risk exposure. Buildings now carry a longer "tail" of potential liability for maintenance and repair failures making proactive building upkeep and accurate record-keeping more important than ever.

The solution? A strata manager who stays ahead of legislative changes like this and helps your committee manage risk proactively not reactively, after a claim lands.

At Strata United, keeping our clients informed and protected against changes like this is part of how we manage every scheme.

A recent industry review has resulted in nine breach determinations and two brokers referred to the corporate regulator following an investigation into strata insurance arrangements across the industry.

What this means for strata owners:
🔹 Regulators are actively scrutinising how commissions and fees are disclosed in strata insurance arrangements
🔹 Owners corporations are increasingly entitled to clear, transparent information about how their insurance is arranged and who benefits from it
🔹 Not all strata managers are equally transparent about these arrangements and this review is a timely reminder to ask questions

The bigger picture: if you don't know how your strata insurance is arranged, or who's earning what from it, it's worth asking.

At Strata United, transparency isn't something we scramble to prove during a review, it's built into how we operate every day. No hidden fees, no unclear arrangements, just straightforward reporting you can trust.

Feeling stuck with a strata manager you're not happy with?

A lot of owners don't realise how much power a lock-in contract gives their strata manager and how little leverage that leaves them if service quality drops.

The good news: you're not as stuck as you think. Strata United offers no lock-in contracts, meaning our service has to earn your trust every single year, not assume it.

Strata Audits: What They Are and Why They Matter

Ever wondered how your owners corporation's finances are really tracked? That's where a strata audit comes in.

What is a strata audit?

A strata audit is an independent review of your scheme's financial records, checking that levies, expenses, and fund balances (admin fund and capital works fund) are accurate, properly documented, and compliant with strata legislation.

Why it matters:
✅ Confirms your building's finances are being managed responsibly
✅ Picks up errors or discrepancies before they become bigger problems
✅ Builds trust and transparency between owners and the committee
✅ Protects the long-term financial health of your property
✅ Gives owners confidence their levies are being spent appropriately

Many owners assume audits only matter for larger schemes but any building can benefit from a periodic financial health check, especially before major works or a change in strata management.

The solution? Work with a strata manager who prioritises transparent, accurate reporting as standard practice not just at audit time.

At Strata United, transparent financial reporting isn't an add-on, it's built into how we manage every property we look after.

Do you actually know what you're paying for?

Many owners are surprised to learn their strata fees include hidden banking fees, levy charges, or costs buried in reporting that's hard to make sense of.

Transparency shouldn't be a bonus feature, it should be standard. Strata United provides clear, honest financial reporting with zero hidden banking or levy fees, so your committee always knows exactly where funds are going.

"We're still waiting on a response" — one of the most common things we hear from new clients.

Slow communication is one of the biggest frustrations in strata living. A leaking roof, broken intercom, or unanswered maintenance request shouldn't sit in limbo for weeks.

The fix? A strata manager with genuine capacity to respond fast, not one juggling too many buildings to give yours proper attention. At Strata United, we intentionally manage a limited portfolio so every building gets the attention it deserves.

From late 2026, being on a strata committee in NSW comes with a new legal requirement: mandatory training.

Here's what's changing:
✅ A free 1-hour online module via the NSW Fair Trading website, to be completed within 3 months of appointment at your AGM
✅ A second 1-hour session delivered by an approved training provider, completed before the next AGM

These changes are designed to help committee members understand their legal duties, manage day-to-day responsibilities with more confidence, and reduce disputes within their scheme.

What this means for you: if you're on a committee (or thinking about joining one), factor this into your time commitment from your next AGM onward.

At Strata United, we keep our clients ahead of every legislative change, no scrambling, no confusion, just clear guidance when you need it.

📞 Have questions about how this affects your committee? Give our team a call on 1300 445 900, we're always happy to help you navigate what's next

Not all strata managers are the same and you shouldn't have to settle.

As property owners ourselves, we know exactly what frustrates owners and committees most: slow responses, unclear costs, and promises that don't get kept.

That's why Strata United was built differently. We're Sydney's switching strata specialists, helping owners corporations move from underperforming management to a team that's genuinely responsive, transparent, and accountable.

No lock-in contracts. No nasty fee surprises. Just strata management done properly.

💬 Thinking it might be time for a change?

Reach out for a confidential, no-obligation chat and we'll walk you through exactly what switching looks like.

The Hidden Power of Your Strata’s Building Compliance Record

Most residents assume their building is “compliant” but very few actually know. And that’s a problem, because non‑compliance can cost owners thousands and expose the scheme to serious risk.

Here’s what every resident should be asking:

Is our fire safety certification up to date? Expired AFSS certificates can lead to fines and insurance issues.

Are mandatory inspections actually being done?

Do we have records for all past works, missing documentation can delay sales and complicate insurance claims.

Are we meeting WHS obligations, committees must manage risks for contractors and residents.

Is our asbestos register current? Older buildings must maintain and update this by law.

A building that “looks fine” isn’t the same as a legally compliant building. This is a powerful topic to bring to your next meeting, it protects everyone’s safety and property values.
