Agree with you Gus about taking a large investment of time to put together some kind of historical information.
I spent 6hrs and laboriously copied by hand relevant dates/facts/figures.
The charges I mention in the original post are above and beyond the charges I have outlined here that would apply to every owner in the complex and are similar to your NSW charges.
The extra cost proposed were directed at us because they believe we have exceeded what is ‘reasonable’.
Since we have just discovered our strata managers have recommended an unregistered painter for a complex repaint job (19 units over three levels), I imagine they are doing what they can to ‘deter’ us from looking too closely.
