Over here at Flat Chat weâre getting very excited about the Strata Matters ownersâ day seminar thingy in a couple of weeks.
Yes, we will be talking about cladding, yes we will be talking about short-term letting, and ⦠oh yes ⦠we will be talking about all the crazies, zealots, trouble-makers, know-alls, know-nothing, ignorant, innocents who populate this wacky world of strata.
The Strata Matters owners day organised by the Owners Corporation Network is going to be fun but itâs also going to be seriously informative and you will go away with a heap of solid facts, shared experiences and practical tactical nous that you can use in your daily strata living.
And it will be opened by the Fair Trading Minister Matt Kean, one of the few politicians in any party who actually âgetsâ strata.
Itâs on March 10 and tickets are going fast, Iâm told. Click here to book yours. Remember, itâs the only event to feature yours truly so if you want that Flat Chat Live experience, you know what to do.
Meanwhile, while weâre on the subject of crazies, zealots, trouble-makers and know-alls, hereâs the latest questions from the Flat Chat Forum.
