Question: One family owns 61% of our scheme and use their strata unit entitlements NSW to block the committee and let the scheme run down. Would this situation be classed as dysfunctional?
Answer: If the 61% family prevents the Owners Corporation from complying with its statutory obligations, then this would be a strong argument for the compulsory appointment of a strata manager.
Yes, if the 61% family prevents the Owners Corporation from complying with its statutory obligations, then this would be a strong argument for the compulsory appointment of a strata manager. Obviously, you would bear the onus of proof and need to demonstrate the full extent of the dysfunction and have statutory declarations and other strong evidence to support your application.
