What are the Management Statement and By Laws?
Strata Companies manage their schemes by way of legislation; this being The Strata Titles Act of Western Australia and By Laws or a Management Statement, the latter being specifically drafted for your scheme.
Being an owner in a strata scheme, you are responsible for the actions of your property manager, tenant and their guest(s) and in doing so, ensure that you and your tenants abide by the by laws at all times. This is key to seeing that you and other owners investment is protected and a greater community spirit and sense of belonging is achieved
