In almost all situations, an owners corporation must take out both reinstatement and replacement insurance and public liability insurance for all lots in a multi-storey development if:
- Any of the lots is located above or below another lot, or
- Any of the lots is located above or below common property.
The only situations where this requirement does not apply are if:
- The lots are actually single-storey, such as those found on multi-storey plans that define the space above and below the lots as common property, or
- The multi-storey development was registered under the Strata Titles Act 1967 and Cluster Titles Act 1974 and does not have lots above or below one another.
