the business of managing a strata (Hi-Rise, Townhouses, 3-storey walk-up) complex with the purchase of a “managers” unit/residence and 2 business contracts
- caretaking/managing of the common property

The Unit Contract and the Business Contract must be completed Contemporaneously (at the same time).
As the buyer (Resident Managers) you are agreeing to do the caretaking of the common property (sweeping, weeding gardens, mowing, managing the swimming pool, etc.) and you are paid a Contractual Remuneration by the Body Corporate (usually monthly in arrears).
The Letting Agreement allows the buyer to let the units/townhouses within the complex and you must obtain a “Resident Letting Agent” License to allow you to manage rentals within the scheme. Some buyers also obtain their Full Real Estate License or a Real Estate Sales License to enable them to sell units within their complex.
