My experience with NCAT was not a pleasant experience. Our building has failed to undertake any maintenance despite hundreds of thousands in repair costs being incurred through concrete cancer remediation.
Painting to protect building external surfaces and keep the value of property up, blocked and overflowing sewer and storm water, water leaks from water pipes into lots, lifting and subsiding driveways to name a few issues.
This was dismissed by the member and we were forced to withdraw despite presenting a file of many pages including photos. The agreement with strata has not been honored and I guess we will be back for another go.
Next time I will do it with a lawyer to represent as they will not be so easily walked over.
Quite a disappointing experience and a waste of government resources.
Have to keep on the strata plan to keep building the picture of a strata plan that is just looking to avoid costa in the immediate term.
