Episode Synopsis

Last week we said that Strata Community Association NSW  - the states' strata managers' professional body - was in disarray.  Objecting to that negative characterisation, NSW President Robert Anderson agreed to come on to the podcast and answer a few questions.We had no shortage of those. For instance, we asked what the changes at SCA-NSW are. Has SCA-NSW been getting it wrong? Is there a new philosophy or culture, following changes on the SCA-NSW board?Are the changes in the standard agency agreement a recognition that there was something wrong with the previous much maligned version or is it just to comply with changes in legislation?What does SCA-NSW have to do to regain owners’ trust? What about training for committee members? Who should do it: SCA, the Owners Corporation Network (OCN) or Fair Trading?And finally, will the SCA continue to claim that it represents owners? It's a slightly longer than usual session and the sound quality is OK but, thanks to the interview being conducted over Zoom, not up to our usual tip-top standards.Enjoy.____________________________________________________Flat Chat is all about apartment living, especially in Australia.Find us on Facebook and Twitter and the Flat Chat website.Send comments and questions to [email protected] to ask and answer questions about apartment living anonymously on the website.Recorded by Jimmy Thomson & Sue Williams; Transcribed by Otter.ai.Find out more about Sue Williams and Jimmy Thomson on their websites.
