Generally Strata insurance covers all aspects of common property and owners’ fixtures and fittings that have been damaged or destroyed by an insurable event. Examples of fixtures and fittings include sinks, shower screens, cupboards, internal doors and stoves. CSTM strongly recommends that owners obtain their own contents and/or landlords insurance for items not included in the Strata policy. Please contact us if you require clarification on a specific item.
Email a written request to your Strata Manager The Small Block Strata Co. They will advise whether it needs to be a motion on the next General Meeting Agenda or, if the Executive Committee can resolve it.
Levy payments are deposited into the Strata Plan’s individual bank account and are held in trust until required to pay for repairs and maintenance of common property.
