We recognise that every building is different and there's no one size fits all approach to a customers needs. Our service offering is divided into a core service and value-add offering.

Our value added offering caters for buildings that have specific needs or a desire for a higher level of more sophisticated services. Of course, our services can be tailored as desired to suit your needs.

Strata and building management services are so closely related that they're often confused for being one in the same. Whilst related, the two differ in their functions, to the extent that a clear distinction is drawn between them in legislation. The owners corporation is ultimately responsible for the management and administration of the scheme, and the maintenance, control and use of common property. When we consider the responsibility of the owners corporation, the two main responsibilities can be summarised as scheme administration and common property management.
Building management services assist the owners corporation exclusively in functions of managing common property. For example, controlling visitor parking, organising for hallways to be cleaned, and arranging for a plumber to repair a hot water system. The skills involved in building management primary revolve around property maintenance and management, with a deep knowledge of what is common property.
In contrast strata scheme administration typically involves managing finances, keeping records, taking out insurances, governing the by-laws, communicating with owners/residents, ensuring compliance with the law and holding meetings to vote on matters that concern owners.
Put simply, a strata manger manages the scheme, a building manager manages property.
It's critical to the success of a strata manager to understand what common property maintenance entails. Similarly, a building manager needs a good understanding of the concepts of strata management as they pertain to finances, what constitutes common property and high level problem solving skills in order to fulfil their role. The best strata and building managers demonstrate in-depth expertise across both areas, and the impact of one on the other.
We offer both strata management and building management services to deliver maximum value for your money. Both are designed to work together, however we recognise that it might not not always be practical or feasible for customers to adopt both. Our strata management services can be tailored to suit your needs and if necessary, we'll work with your existing building management provider. That's collaboration in action.
