Your contract is with the strata management agency, not an individual strata manager.

Your contract is with the strata management agency, not an individual strata manager.

Realistically however, something like a key person clause is not valid as it is not enforceable under the legislation.

You can request a particular strata manager, but ultimately staff and resource decisions are at the discretion of the strata management company.
