How to change body corporate in Victoria?

To change body corporate in Victoria, consider when your current contract ends, how a new decision can be passed (e.g. by the committee or OC), and where to find reliable strata managers. Strata Consultants Melbourne has been helping Committees with this since 2014.

Can our strata manager change without committee approval?

Strata managers can be changed via an ordinary resolution passed either by the Committee or the Owners Corporation through a general meeting or OC ballot.

Can you change owner corporation?

Yes, changing your owner corporation management company involves a strata renewal process. All owners must agree, and changes must comply with state laws.
