Hi, Ozzy
NSW Advice
Sounds like you have what we call a “dotted line plan”. Not as common as the solid line plans that create a LOT more common property. If you take a look at the strata plan you will likely find the building is defined by a dotted line rather than a solid line. There is also an accompanying reference to say that there will be no common property in the lot including the buildings and a stratum defined (3m down 6m up).
These are strata plans and they still have some common property responsibilities like common services that service multiple lots (water/sewer/elec), fencing of the strata boundary and if there is a common driveway that would be included as well. These schemes can usually have a lower levy requirement due to the lack of CP roofs/walls etc.
These schemes still have all of the other requirements that a normal strata would incur like needing to insure all buildings.
I also wanted to emphasis Jimmy-T’s point about ai. It “hallucinates” often when it comes to strata as there is often a lot of nuance on how things work and when it scours the internet looking for patterns to pass off as answers it will find a lot of people getting it very, very wrong.
