Hi all,
It's good that I stumbled across this great forum as this question has been plaguing me all week!
I recently purchased an IP for around 300k and I unfortunately didn't do my DD to the extent that it deserved. I'm about 2 weeks away from settlement and I just realised that my parking space is too tight to get the car in (and I have a very small car)! By this I mean, there is another car space roughly 3.5m directly behind my car space (at a slightly favourable skew), which by way of turning radius and car width/length would make it extremely hard to get the car in.
What measures can I take to have the impeding car move back a bit to allow more space in between the cars (i.e. change it from 3.5m to say 5.5m)? There is a bit of room that it can move back onto. I'd hazard a guess and say it would be the owners corp that would look into it. But really, it should be a no-brainer as it's not cool to have a owner not able to use his own parking space due to another space being too close! What can I do?? I don't want this issue affecting my tenancy potential
To put it in pictures: (my space is marked with x with the impeding car space below that on a slight skew) ... ignore the dots
