About the February 2024 edition
The February 2024 edition of The WA Strata Magazine opens the year with a focus on insurance obligations, energy efficiency, short-term rental regulation, and strata governance for Western Australian strata schemes. Insurance articles examine insurer duty of care to lot owners, insurance policy disclosure, the role of brokers, replacement valuations, and ensuring committee transparency in insurance renewal reporting. The edition also covers commercial strata preparedness, co-owner proxy and voting rights, lot maintenance obligations, common property plant removal fines, and the new short-term rental landscape for WA apartment owners.
