Keep up with the latest edition of Living Strata QLD. This online magazine is published monthly and covers current news, insights, and legislative updates for strata communities throughout Queensland.
The October 2026 edition of The QLD Strata Magazine covers the questions Queensland lot owners and committees face around selling, insurance and fire safety. Articles look at appointing a body corporate manager to help with a lot sale, record-keeping problems for small schemes at sale time, budgeting for building insurance, and whether owners who volunteer their expertise are covered by body corporate insurance. The edition also covers smoke detector compliance before purchase, who is responsible for fire compliance and fire damper repairs, caretaker obligations over common property keys, building managers renting out car parks, and owner notification for minor voting outside committee (VOC) decisions.
