Our OC suffered under a compulsory strata appointment for five years and want to ensure that others are not left financially crippled due to the abuse of power by compulsorily appointed strata managers. The facts are in my case and should be compulsory reading for anyone about to enter the strata sphere:

In Xabregas v The Owners – Strata Plan No 79205; Moallem v Consumer Trader & Tenancy Tribunal (No 2), White J made a personal costs order against the strata manager for instructing a lawyer to institute proceedings without reasonable prospect of success. No costs order was made against OC’s strata lawyer. In his judgment, White J emphasised the high responsibility of a strata manager appointed under section 162 of the Strata Schemes Management Act 1996 (NSW).

I would like to hear from others that have suffered under compulsory appointment as we are a group who see the need for the law to change and even compensation for the OC’s that have suffered to-date. Any suggestions/comments welcome.
