This month, we revisit Exclusive Use Areas (EUAs) and Common Property: Understanding Alienation in Sectional Title Schemes.

When does granting exclusive use become alienation? What happens when trustees approve enclosures or changes without following the correct legal procedures?

Hosted by Leigh Maingard with specialist Auren Freitas dos Santos of The Advisory, this training session explores the legal requirements, common pitfalls and practical case studies.

A lift replacement, roof repair, waterproofing project or major painting programme can represent a significant expense.

Waiting until the work becomes urgent can leave owners facing difficult financial decisions. A 10-year maintenance and replacement plan allows trustees to identify major capital requirements and prepare financially for them.

If your scheme needs greater structure around financial and physical management, Intersect can help. Contact us for a management proposal.

Owners are more likely to support levy increases and major expenditure when they understand why the money is needed.

Transparent budgeting means disclosing and explaining budget items, planning for known increases and clearly distinguishing between operational expenses and long-term capital requirements.

Good financial management isn't simply about balancing the books - it is about giving owners confidence that their contributions are being managed responsibly.

A properly planned reserve fund isn't simply money set aside for future repairs. It supports asset preservation, financial fairness, legal compliance, property value protection and operational certainty.

By planning for major expenditure instead of waiting for failures, trustees can reduce the likelihood of sudden levy increases and make better-informed decisions about the scheme's future.

Long-term planning gives owners greater financial predictability too.

A good administrative budget should be accurate, transparent, fair, compliant and sustainable.

Costs need to reflect realistic expenditure and known increases; owners should understand what they are paying for; levies should be fairly apportioned; the budget must comply with the applicable legislation and rules; and the scheme should be able to operate without recurring cashflow crises.

These principles provide a useful checklist for trustees reviewing their annual budget.

An owner's levy contributes towards the costs of running and maintaining the scheme. The administrative budget covers recurring expenses, while reserve fund contributions help prepare for longer-term capital works.

The presentation highlights that both budgets are funded through owners' levies and are intended to provide financial stability, accountability and transparency.

Understanding where levy contributions go helps owners participate more meaningfully in their scheme's financial decisions.

Buildings, equipment and services deteriorate over time. Without long-term planning, schemes can find themselves facing costly emergency repairs or large, unpredictable special levies.

The Maintenance, Repair and Replacement Plan provides a 10-year framework for major capital repairs and replacements, helping schemes build funds gradually and giving owners greater predictability around future costs.

From security and insurance to cleaning, municipal services, staff salaries and management fees, the administrative budget provides for the day-to-day operation of a scheme. But a good budget is about more than listing expenses.

Costs should be realistic, properly disclosed and explained to owners, with levies apportioned fairly. The objective is to keep the scheme operating efficiently without creating cashflow crises.
