Re: Maintenance approved but no funding available

Thanks for your reply which is helpful. They are making contributions however will not agree to a special levy.  The special levy was agreed to by 3 owners. One of the owners does not live there and the family member that does will do anything to avoid paying repairs (the owner is in a nursing home). Out of the 3 that have agreed, one owner is now saying we should wait longer (this has been going on for 2 years) until he can get agreement from the dissenting owner.  This agreement will never happen. As you can probably ascertain the situation is now becoming hostile.  The townhouses are a high value (in the low $1 m’s) and we do not like living in a pig sty. We do have a strata manager and they have initiated the quotes etc to get the building up to scratch. There have been so many quotations carried out that by the time anything is done they will all be invalid. This has happened before and is a deliberate stalling process from the dissenting owner. All the strata manager needs to move forward is an agreement from the owners to raise a special levy and this is where everything has stalled.
