Why Finer Property
Local and accessible
Based in Chatswood, covering the North Shore. You deal with us directly — not a call centre or rotating roster.
Proactive, not reactive
Regular inspections catch issues early. A maintenance register tracks what's been done and what's coming — so nothing falls through the cracks.
Committee-ready reporting
Every visit produces a clear written summary. Reports are designed to be shared at committee meetings without additional work.
Transparent and independent
No commissions from contractors, no hidden markups. Trades are recommended on quality and fair pricing — with full transparency on quotes and scope.
NSW strata law is getting stricter
Recent legislative changes mean committees face greater accountability for building maintenance than ever before.
6-year liability window
The 2025 reforms extended the period for lot owners to claim against the Owners Corporation for maintenance failures — from 2 years to 6 years.
Fair Trading enforcement
NSW Fair Trading can now issue compliance notices, demand documents, and publicly name buildings that neglect maintenance obligations.
Frequently asked questions
What types of buildings do you work with?
We typically service boutique strata blocks on Sydney's North Shore - focusing on pre-2000 built small to medium sized buildings and complexes.
Do you replace our strata manager?
No. If you have a strata manager, we complement their work by handling on-site inspections, contractor coordination, and follow-through. If you're self-managed, we provide practical support without taking over governance.
What does the Free Building Health Check involve?
A quick online self-assessment (around 5 minutes) covering 12 key areas of your building — from gardens and gutters to fire safety and contractor management. You receive an instant scorecard with a PDF report.
How quickly can you respond to urgent issues?
Same day for urgent issues. Within 2 business days for non-urgent requests.
What's the difference between the Free Building Health Check and the On-site Maintenance Report?
The free check is a quick, self-guided online tool that helps you understand what areas of your building's maintenance currently need the most attention. The paid on-site visit is a more comprehensive and personalised service where we assess your building in-person and generate a detailed, actionable maintenance report for the committee.
What areas and suburbs do you service?
We specialise in caring for buildings on the Lower and Upper North Shore, serving communities from Milsons Point to Wahroonga in the Mosman, North Sydney, Willoughby, Lane Cove and Ku-ring-gai LGAs.
