3 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. 1 April 2012); non-structural ran to 1 April 2012. 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.
Cost exposure
Elevated exposureAn indicative, itemised estimate of what one lot here could face, built only from this scheme's public-record signals. Indicative ranges, not this building's actual figures, and not financial advice.
Special levies are apportioned by unit entitlement. Set this from your contract; 1.0× is an average lot.
| Driver | Good | Expected | Worst |
|---|---|---|---|
Serious building-defect rectification A decision on this scheme was classified as a building-defect matter. Indicative per-lot serious-defect rectification levies (NSW Serious Defects in Residential Apartments research report, 2021; strata special-levy reporting). Scaled for: 1 matter. | $8,200 | $27,100 | $89,000 |
Tribunal and legal costs 3 tribunal or court matters on the public record. Indicative per-lot share of tribunal and legal costs in a strata dispute (NCAT). Scaled for: 3 matters. | $600 | $4,300 | $15,900 |

Across all 83 lots, an expected program of this kind is on the order of $2,606,200 building-wide, before any government contribution.
Estimate only. Figures are indicative ranges from public remediation programs and reporting, apportioned to one lot; they are not this building's costed works and not financial advice. Obtain the capital works fund balance, any special levy resolved or proposed, and a strata records search before you transact.
