2 litigation matters on record
Tribunal and court decisions naming this scheme as a party. A litigious building is more likely to be carrying unresolved disputes, defects, or levy fights.
-
Building-defect dispute on record
A matter touches building defects or rectification work. Ask whether the work is funded and whether the builder's warranty still applies.
Statutory warranty: structural cover likely expired (est. 20 April 1989); non-structural ran to 20 April 1989. A single 7-year warranty period applies because the scheme was registered before the 1 February 2012 reform. Estimated from the registration date, not the completion date or building contract, so treat the dates as indicative.
-
No recent annual reporting on the Strata Hub
We could not find a current annual return for this scheme on the NSW Strata Hub. That may just be a gap in the public data, but a non-reporting scheme can also signal a disengaged committee, ask for the last two AGM minutes.

Every matter links to the full decision. Whether a matter helped or hurt the scheme is not assessed here.
