I’m in the process now of trying to do that. I’m normally pretty private live and let live. It was actually other owners/ committee members tentatively and not so tentatively expressing concerns that emboldened me. Before that, and before I saw the first something askew financial report I assumed everything was fine.
Most of our building is tenants and I am the only person who only speaks English. Now that I know our insurance is OK I feel a lot calmer to go at a slower pace and get to know people and what they want, and build trust.
I’m in communication with one owner who doesn’t live in the building and they have a good rapport with another committee member I’m getting to know, who has lived here for a while and knows most of the people.
So, it’s learning the people, the situation, the legislation, and everything strata in NSW, and my self too 😀
I’ll keep you posted. It’s so good to have this forum! (And maybe other people in similar situation can read and get something out of this too).
