    Separate question orders

Decisions naming this scheme, from NSW Caselaw (NCAT and the courts). The quoted line beneath each is the decision's own catchwords; the topic tag is our grouping of those words. Whether a matter helped or hurt the scheme is not assessed here.

Statutory-warranty outlook

Structural cover
Likely expired · est. expiry 15 October 2005
Non-structural cover
Ran to 15 October 2005

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.

What was checked, what it found, how strong the match, and when each source last ran. A source that has not run here yet reads as not checked, never as checked and clear.

Compiled by StrataAuditor from NSW Strata Hub (DCS Spatial Services) and the relevant licence registers. Litigation from NSW Caselaw (NCAT and the courts). Records only, as published; unknowns are shown as unknowns.

Coverage caveat: this reflects only what is on the public record for New South Wales at the time of generation. An empty matters or orders count is not a clean bill: fund balances, current levies, minutes, and defects not yet litigated are never on the public record. Obtain the strata report before you bid.
