    As we have said many times on these pages, if your scheme has a lot of  dealings with your strata manager, then you should go for a contract that’s more expensive but all inclusive.

    If everything is settled and the strata manager is just orgnsisng meetings, collecting levies and paying bills , then it’s worth going for a less expensive contract thatallows for Schedule B charges.

    If I’m reading your post correctly, you are paying a lot more than the quoted figures in your actual strata management fees.  So ask the strata manager what an all-inclusive (no schedule B charges), contract would be.

    If they can’t offer a serious reduction on $75k, then you are entitled to look elsewhere.  By the way, the average per unit fees these days seem to be between $260 and $300 (but it all depends on the Schedule B charges and how keen they are to top up with them).
