Chercheuse,
We have been under a CSM for 20 months. In the first month the CSM raised our levies 14%. Despite promising to keep our good suppliers they were fired and replaced with others and in the case of our cleaners sub standard. We had a million dollars in the sinking fund going in and after massive bungling with a window project I fear we have lost at least half of that if not more – we don’t have the figures yet and I fear we won’t know until the CSM is over. Schedule B fees are 95% more than what the previous SM charged, in fact they are more than double his annual management fee. This is a very draconian system and if anyone is interested PM me. We have to lobby government for changes in the Act.
