question
Reviewing a financial statement from our previous OC Manager, I have found several dubious charges. Is this a police matter or should we have the books audited?
Reviewing a financial statement from our previous OC Manager, I have found several dubious charges. I've checked these charges with suppliers.
The discrepancies include a charge of $1685 for Essential Services when these services were billed as $232. There are also charges of three water excesses of $2500 each when no work has been carried out or billed. There are also Owners Corporation charges for repairs in addition to agreed insurance work.
What should I do? Is this a Police matter? Should we get an audit done? If we get an audit done, what are the next steps?
answer
I would engage an auditor and provide the auditor with your concerns. If the audit report supports your findings, then I would suggest consulting a strata solicitor would be the next step with a view to potentially taking the matter to the tribunal for remediation.
