Frequently Asked Questions
Strata management
Strata Title and Community Title are the main property titles in South Australia given to a property that has shared or Common use, area or item. The Management of unit groups, Lots or Apartments have many different names across Australia.
These property titles are distinct from Torrens Title where you entirely own your property with no other parties. There are several differences between a Strata and Community group which are outlined in the relevant legislation for each Title. We would be glad to elaborate further if you have any queries in relation to your unit.
For residents living in strata
Parking for your property will be outlined on your Strata or Community plan. Some groups will have allocated parking for each unit and/or common parking or Visitor parking. If you are having difficulty in interpreting your plan, please ask Stratarama to review and assist you with this.

Maintenance & improvements
It is important to remember that when living as part of a community or strata group, you have both rights and responsibilities. Decisions to alter the appearance or structure of your property may need to be approved by other Members of your group. Irrelevant of the works you are privately considering, it will be important to discuss these with your Strata Manager or Members prior to undertaking any works. This will allow you to understand what is or is not acceptable with your group, and whether your proposal needs to be voted upon by the Members (including details on how the other Owners may be affected by these works).
