    scotlandx’s reply might be OK for NSW. 

     

    But what about other states (eg VIC) where there is no requirement to give the names of tenants to the OC.

     

    There same situation must occur.  What happens then? Are the tenant names actually needed before notices or orders can be issued?  I suspect it’s the owner who then gets the notice or orders.

    The Owners Corporation Act in Victoria says that any owner who will not be in their unit for more than three months must give the Owners Corp their address.  It doesn’t, however say how you serve a breach notice on someone who has declined to do so and therefore can’t be located.

    135. Address of absent owners
    A lot owner who does not occupy the lot or who will be absent from the lot for more than 3 months must advise the owners corporation of the lot owner’s mailing address for service of notices and any changes to it as soon as possible.
