Yes. I’ve heard Queensland strata managers and politicians say that the whole system would collapse without caretakers in place right from the start and developers are the best people to choose them.
The simple fact is that developers choose the caretakers on the basis of who pays them the most and then the caretakers have to claw back the premium they have paid from the owners.
And, yes, by some miracle, all the other strata schemes in other states survive without the pre-sale of management rights. It’s a rort and it’s an embarrassment (or should be) to all Queenslanders.
