I’ve lived in a townhouse for 6 years and have paid around $20-30k out of pocket for a number of emergency or water ingress rectification works. The work has involved fixing leaking roof, missing flashing & valleys, continual water ingress in my garage, water damage to painted walls and metallic frames etc.

I didn’t seek funding from Strata courtesy of a mix of poor Strata management & my own lack of common property knowledge.

Do I have any recourse to seek compensation for these sorts of out of pocket expenses?

Many thanks in advance.
