Hi all,

I am currently in a difficult situation, we are stuck in a 3 year contract with a strata managing agent who is not performing up to standard in a number of ways. However, my main concern is how they were appointed. Without going into specifics, the key points can be summarised as follows:
- Previous strata members were associated with the developer/builder, which was undisclosed.
- Strata manager pushed through a 3 year extension that was voted for by the previous (compromised) members of strata.
- One of the compromised members of strata (secretary) signed the 3 year extension (the contract was also signed by another strata member (chairperson) who was unaware of the connection)
- Both of the compromised members of strata were behind on their levies during the AGM as well.
We believe that the strata agent failed to ensure that all members were up to date on their levies and did not check for conflict of interest. Do we have grounds to take this further (to NCAT) to seek a dismissal (or even a re-vote?) due to this meeting being invalid?
