    So I'm finally going to attend a strata AGM tonight for the first time after owning apartment IP for a number of years (I know) and am strangely excited ?

    I've read the agenda and looked through the financial accounts report. Curious to see if anyone have thoughts on what is usually important to attention to or ask about at these meetings ?

    PS. i'm planning to do a reno when current tennant moves out (probably next year),so do a have an agenda to gauge what the vibe is at these meetings and see who is who.

    Is it a small strata?
    Always good to know who is who and where the power lies.
    Often strata meetings are very poorly attended, so they will be chuffed that you are showing up and taking an interest.

    Attend and enjoy. You may find that One or two people will hold a pile of proxies.

    Bravo for the move!

    I suppose the deadline for nomination to the committee would have passed. See if you can nominate on the floor. Always good to be in the Committee.

    What you can do now is to quickly familiarise yourself with the Complex: the people, the work, the money and any future plans.

    Attendance might be low but hopefully the Strata Manager is knowledgeable. Ask him/ her for any issues, current or future.

    Levy - try and get an understanding as to how it's derived.

    Enjoy and let us know how you go!
