      Hi

      I’m new on here but have a question to all the learned people on here.

      I bought a villa with one common wall and as there is only two of us who act as the body corporate.

      My question is do I need permission to install an A/C unit in my house. It will not affect any common wall between us as it will be situated far away from it .

      If I do and they refuse what are my avenues to resolve the issue if it arises.

      Regards

          Are the unit entitlements equal?  If so, or if you have more UEs, and the aircon is reverse cycle, you can install it under a sustainability by-law which only requires a 50 percent vote in favour.  And that’s only if you are changing any aspect of common property.  Otherwise, you can probably go ahead, unless there is a by-law that forbids it. Check your by-laws.
