Webinars: Difficult owners and tricky committees

Bannermans Lawyers are taking registrations for their free webinars on how to deal with difficult owners and making your committee work better.

QUIRKY: Multi-million-dollar mansions for sale, parrots in peril, pub pokie losers cast shade on housing, payment system won't take rent or levies.

NEWS: Fugitive developer Jean Nassif's daughter walks away from jail time for falsifying $150m loan documents.

It's the climate denialst, anti-EV committee's worst nightmare - owners may soon be able to install solar panels on the front of their balconies.

The Owners Corporation Network shows it's serious about extending its advice and advocacy coverage to Victoria.

Forum. Question of the week about mould, new childproof window locks regs, tenant's flood damages flat below, tighter terms for building managers.

News: prices down, rents up, modular houses designed for multi-generational families, and why young Australians are delaying retirement. Seriously!

Strata laws differ from state to state but there is one universal truth ... a flood in one apartment will surely make its way to another.

Quirky: Buyer spends $1.66 million on property they’ve never seen, “upsizers” boosted by property slump, and Bathla mansion in limbo.

Forum: Conflicts of interest, strata levy differences, compulsory committee training, and pressure to sign a common property by-law

COMMENT: How we've been brainwashed by pumping petrol into thinking our cars need to be fuelled to the brim while we stand, pump in hand.
