    These are excellent questions which were not raised let alone addressed in the program. I feel the issue of strata mismanagement by agents, committees and (from what I discovered on my short time involved in owning a strata unit), lethargic politicians needs a far deeper and wider investigation.

    You have seven states and territories each with their own very distinctive strata laws. Within that spread, you have corruption, conflict of interests, owner apathy and ignorance, defects, discrimination, self-interest and uncertainty.  “The Strata Trap” was a pretty good start at tackling a problem of Herculean proportions.

    For what it’s worth, I think our politicians across Australia believe people who choose to live in apartments deserve what they get.  Just look at how they made Airbnb our problem, not theirs.
