Remember thst any contract is a mutual agreement between two parties.
in the extreme a court can annul a contract if one party Is disadvantaged .
I have heard of strata managers saying thst they can’t change the SCA contract so take it. Owners could then just refuse to sign such a contract and find a strata manager who is more amenable.
Despite their bad reputation, there are some very good strata managers who will align with the owners.
And there is more than the SCA contract out there. We recently resigned with our strata manager and they had their own management contract which was very fair.
