What Strata Buyers Wish They Knew Before Buying a Unit | Amanda Farmer, Your Strata Property
Manage episode 344509448 series 2445782
It is no surprise that the apartment lifestyle is gaining more popularity among many Australians nowadays.
Amid the housing affordability crisis, a strata title property poses as a more convenient and affordable alternative to home ownership and property investment.
The catch? Prospective buyers often have no idea of the information they need prior to purchasing.
Amanda Farmer, strata lawyer and the host of Your Strata Property podcast, joins us today to talk about what property buyers should expect from buying into a strata complex, from villa units to townhouses.
We discuss everything strata owners wish they knew prior to their purchase–the rules in a strata complex, building repairs and maintenance, the strata committee and their functions, and more!
