Current NSW strata laws can make it challenging for owners to carry out minor renovations to their lot, however, come 30 November 2016, there’s good news as the new reforms will provide clearer, common sense approvals for owner renovations.
The new laws will recognise three kinds of renovations:
- Cosmetic – strata owners will be able to carry out cosmetic work with no approval
- Minor – a simple majority resolution will be required to approve minor renovations
- Major – a special resolution and approval is required for major work
