    Do we need a solicitor to write the by-law?

    ASAIK you don't need a solicitor to write it up, but it would be wise to have it done that way. Once it's approved by the owners corp, it must be registered with the Land Titles Office, or whatever it's called these days, in order to come into effect.

    Couldn't agree more! Hopefully it gets a bit better with the NSW State Govt starting to underwrite in July. Lickster - HOW covers you if the builder dies, disappears or goes bankrupt and he has finished the job but needs to return to fix defects. It is compulsory for any job on a...

    What are Disclaimers for if they don't protect us!

    to me, this seems to be a case of buyers remorse, and they're just using the aircon issue to get out of the contract.

    Must Haves for Babies

    can I suggest just one more thing.... get ONE, and only ONE person who's been there, done that, who you can talk with and seek advice from. so many people want to offer words of advice and wisdom, and it ends up confusing the hell out of you.... and grow some duck feathers to allow the...
