About the October 2026 edition
The October 2026 edition of The WA Strata Magazine examines the shifting economics for WA strata investors, insurance liability when reticulation water floods storage lockers, and who pays to inspect power points used for EV charging. Industry experts tackle governance questions including council quorums after resignations, voting on meeting minutes, owner-convened EGMs, and admin fees for warning notices. The issue also covers levy disputes, vehicle limits in lot garages, over-55s occupancy restrictions, whether accepting a quote creates a contract, and building better strata communities through listening.
