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.

Can you run your own body corporate?

Yes, for Tier 2–5 owners corporations, you can self-manage by electing a chairperson and committee. Tier 1 requires a licensed management company.

How do I get rid of body corporate manager?

You can change body corporate manager by passing an ordinary resolution within the committee or at a general meeting of the owners corporation.

When is it time to change Owners Corporation Manager?

If you're experiencing poor service, hidden costs, or lack of communication, it may be time to consider switching to a more service-driven management company.

How do I know if I am locked into my current management agreement and when is it due to expire?

Check your management contract for expiry dates and termination clauses. If in doubt, contact your OC manager, who must provide this information by law.

How many owners need to agree to change OC?

According to the Owners Corporation Act 2006 Section 119 (1B), a change requires an ordinary resolution, which means at least 50% of the owners' votes.
