If you have a SM, you might ask that person to intervene also. If the SM is any good, he or she will know the law around tenancy rights in strata.Unfortunately the building/strata manager is part of the problem. If he is being pushed by the Committees he needs to push back if the Committee is asking him to do something that is not allowed/required under the bylaws or legislation but he is not. He is a yes person or he is part of the bullying problem. Or both.
The building/strata manager has given me the buildings/stratas own tenant registration form to fill in, which contains all required info as required by law, which we filled in but now he is actually demanding the standard nsw tenancy agreement template because he doesn’t believe my brother is a legitimate tenant. I’ve asked where in the legislation he requires this. Even if i produce this, I am sure he will next ask for ID. It will never end.
And yes in the meantime, proceedings for mediation are underway.
Thanks Jimmy.
We will get the mediation process under way as well because the building manager has decided to disable access to the pool for my brother based on a by law “An owner or occupier must not give a Security Key to someone who is not an owner or occupier”. It still works on the front complex door and the lift although we haven’t tried the other facilities yet. Based on this by-law he needs to completely block my brother’s access to the whole building or not block anything at all! He is just making it up now and completely harassing us.
Will keep you updated.
Simple solution, register your brother as a tenant on the strata roll.
Thanks Jimmy, I have already hinted to the building manager this will happen however he also says that they will need a drivers licence update as proof he “sleeps here” and is a “resident”. Is this legal?
Meanwhile you could apply for mediation with a view to taking action at the tribunal under Section 232 of the Act.
Thank you for this.
