Strata Schemes
Strata schemes for Bellingen and its surrounding suburbs like Fernmount, Brierfield, Gleniffer, Valery, Spicketts Creek, and Thora come with their own set of complexities. Unlike freestanding homes, strata complexes are governed by specific laws and regulations. These schemes involve multiple owners with diverse personalities sharing common spaces, making it essential to have well-defined rules, by-laws, and regulations for smooth operation.
Issues and disputes are inevitable in such settings. Specialised strata lawyers can assist in both preventing and managing these legal challenges. Key legislations that govern strata schemes in NSW include the Home Building Act 1989, the Strata Schemes (Freehold Development) Act, and the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015. These laws cover everything from the responsibilities of the Owners Corporation to individual rights and dispute resolution processes.
