Your body corporate is responsible for many things, however, there are some common misconceptions about what it can and cannot do.
Your body corporate will not -
- Run the rental pool of lots in the scheme available for letting. The resident manger will do this.
- Insure the contents of lots. This is the owner’s responsibility. Please see the Insurance section for a detailed explanation of what the body corporate will cover in respect of the lots.
- Maintain the interior of lots. This is the owner’s responsibility
- Spend funds to promote the community titles scheme as a destination
- Intervene in neighbourhood disputes, unless the dispute arises over behaviour that is in breach of the body corporate by-laws. If neighbours cannot live harmoniously, they have the same rights and remedies as they would if they lived in a non-body corporate environment. The body corporate general meeting or committee meeting is not the appropriate forum for squabbling parties to air differences.
- Draft motions on behalf of owners
- Provide legal advice to owners
- Favour the interests of one owner over the competing interest of another owner.
