The concept of exclusive use areas in sectional title schemes can be confusing especially when these areas are not always easily identifiable. Ownership and maintenance of exclusive use areas are topics of frequent dispute between owners and the body corporate.
In this training session, we considered how exclusive use areas are allocated to scheme owners, and who is responsible for their upkeep and maintenance. What happens when an owner sells their unit with an attached exclusive use area and how must this be treated in the transfer of the unit?
This training session took place on Monday 24 July 2023 and was presented by Leigh Maingard, CEO of Intersect Sectional Title Services.
