Strata cleaning dilemma:
Elderly owner has fallen and broken both legs and his arm, and has been taken to hospital.
The unit presents a hazard to the health of everyone in the building; it has been declared by Council as unfit to live in.
We would like to have the unit cleaned by specialist cleaners (our managing agent has access to these.)
So far, we have not got permission from the owner and we are told that we need this.
The Police do not seem to help.
Legal advice is that we go to the CTTT which will take 8 – 10 weeks.
What would be your advice?
Where do we go?
Surely there must be other buildings with a problem like this.

I've done a bit of checking for Care&share and this is a much more common issue that even I thought. I'm gathering responses from various strata professionals and they will appear in the Flat Chat column in Saturday's SMH (then right here too, of course).
Meanwhile anyone who has any ideas or similar experiences, feel free to chip in.
