    Amanda has done a great job in creating this podcasts for property Owners and even helps assist agents.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

481. Stuck in the System? Tribunal Delays, Interim Orders and a Couple of Bright Spots
Q: What happens to interim orders when an application to renew is filed?
An interim order continues in force until the renewal is granted or refused, and the renewal itself may extend the period further, potentially leading to a continuous status quo while the substantive hearing is pending.
481. Stuck in the System? Tribunal Delays, Interim Orders and a Couple of Bright Spots
Q: What governs how long a compulsory management order can last, and what options exist to extend or renew it?
Orders can last up to two years, with extensions possible via fresh applications for two years or by varying the original appointment, though a single variation may only extend by up to one year depending on the circumstances.
478. The Secret Currency of Strata: Why Influence Beats Authority Every Time
Q: Where did you start? How did you fund it? And how has the budget gone?
KT explains they started with a DA-approved design and, facing budget pressures, de-scoped items through negotiations with a financially stressed owner. They funded via contributions from owners, used the Capital Works Fund, and chose amortization over a strata loan, with meticulous budgeting and eventual full repayment.
477. The strata manager puts their own motions on our agenda
Q: Is it legal for a manager to propose their own motions, such as their own reappointment, on the AGM agenda?
Generally, a strata manager has no authority to introduce non-statutory motions unless explicitly authorized by the strata committee or required by law; owners can requisition motions and the committee should act as the conduit, ensuring motions are properly proposed by lot owners rather than by the manager.
475. What AS 1851 Actually Means for Your Strata Building
Q: What happens if you don't do your AS1851 testing?
The council has mechanisms within the regulatory space to enforce fines and otherwise.
