a)I’m on the hunt for a garden apartment in Sydney NSW. I keep finding apartments where the real estate agent assures me the building is “pet friendly”, however I need to apply for permission to have my greyhound after purchase. My lawyer would of course go through all the fine print but this can be costly, especially when I’m looking at numerous properties up for auction.
2)If the building is clearly marked as “pet friendly” on the strata laws have the new strata laws re pets changed so that I won’t hit problems after purchase if my pet complies with any strata regulations. (eg. barking). I would be happy to buy into an apartment that has pet regulations as some pet owners are totally irresponsible with noise and other pet issues, but I’m quite scared to purchase on an “apply after purchase basis”. I also understand the strata committee can’t possibly respond to each request from numerous prospective vendors.
3) Weight limits for pets. I have a greyhound. They don’t bark & sleep most of the day but I’ve hit weight limits on numerous pet friendly buildings. Are strata committees allowed to dictate weight limits and that you must be able to carry your pet through common areas?
4) if I purchase a garden apartment with an entrance out to the street so my greyhound never goes into common areas can the strata committee object to this? I really don’t want to buy first and find out later!
If you can clarify where I stand I’d really appreciate this as I don’t trust real estate agents as an authoritative source of information!!
