    Jimmy its not only the principle that needs to have a licence, anyone acting as, or performing the duties of a strata managing agent must hold a licence. 

    I’m really not 100% sure about this but I looked up THIS PAGE on the Fair Trading website and it seems to say that registered strata manager can carry out the functions of a strata manager provided they are employed by a strata manager who holds a licence.

    I’m not saying you’re wrong but if you’re right, it’s bloody confusing.

    Salespersons and registered managers 

    … registered managers require a certificate of registration and must not act as or exercise any of the functions of a … registered manager unless the person does so as an employee of the holder of a licence under the Act.

    The Act defines a registered manager as a registered strata manager, registered community manager or registered on-site residential property manager.

    The Act defines a registered strata manager as a person (other than the holder of a strata managing agent’s licence) who, as an employee of a strata managing agent or a corporation that carries on the business of a strata managing agent:

    a) exercises any of the functions of a strata managing agent or

    b) engages in any other activity that is prescribed by the regulations for the purposes of this definition.

    Similar definitions in the Act describe a registered community manager and a registered on-site residential property manager.
