The members of the Council must all be registered proprietors, they therefore have the same personal and financial interest in the property. Each Councillor has one vote at a Council meeting, and this ensures that a dominant personality doesn’t easily run the strata company to suit their personal goals.
As a Council Member it’s not necessary to reside on site, as investors also make great Councillors. It’s a good idea, however, to have at least one owner who resides on site and who all members can access by email, so that they can communicate in between meetings if necessary. It’s important to have a balance of viewpoints and from our experience it’s often helpful to have both non-resident and new owners as members of the Council.
You may be suitable if you have an interest in maintaining value and harmony and particularly if you have any financial, business or property management background.
