WHO’S RESPONSIBLE?
A GUIDE TO COMMON PROPERTY
Is it the Owner’s or Owners Corporation’s Responsibility?
The Who’s Responsible Guide is SCA (NSW)’s comprehensive list of items found within a building that could generally be considered common property. It aims to give some guidance on who would usually be responsible for giving that item attention.
The guide is not meant to be a definitive answer to some of the more complex questions, although it can be used as a start.
SCA (NSW) recommends that in more complex cases, the guide should be used in conjunction with the strata plan and by-laws to determine who is responsible for repairs and maintenance.
