Surprisingly its often very difficult to explain the problem to lot owners as they just see it as the system & Caretaker solicitors/advocates have a well honed story that opponents are misguided at best and at worst some sort of psychotic monsters who are never satisfied. If top ups are the norm and routine as some suggest, then we have perpetual contracts. Of course some say there is nothing wrong with perpetual contracts because any issues can be resolved by the adjudicators. Sounds like Stalinist Russia? Developers are increasingly retaining Caretaker management rights, I think this has been recently outlawed in NSW.
