Risk read

What the public record shows for this scheme, read for a buyer. This is not the strata report, and a quiet record is not a guarantee: obtain a section 184 strata search before you bid.

  • 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. 27 May 2019); non-structural ran to 27 May 2015. NSW Home Building Act periods: 6 years for major or structural defects, 2 years for all others. 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.
