Frequently Asked Questions

Is Bridge Strata a registered strata manager in the ACT?: ACT does not have a dedicated strata manager licensing register. Managers must operate within the Unit Titles (Management) Act 2011 framework. Access Canberra oversees unit title scheme registration. Bridge Strata appears in the SCA ACT directory and/or verified Google Business data.
How can our committee change strata managers in the ACT?: Under the Unit Titles (Management) Act 2011, the owners corporation can terminate the manager's contract subject to its terms (typically 30–90 days notice). The owners corporation passes a resolution at a general meeting to appoint a new manager. Get competing proposals before your next AGM so the executive committee can vote on both termination and replacement at the same meeting.
What legislation governs strata in the ACT?: The primary legislation is the Unit Titles (Management) Act 2011 (ACT), which governs owners corporations — setting out how managers are appointed, how finances are managed, and how disputes are resolved. The Unit Titles Act 2001 governs the registration and subdivision of units plans. ACAT (ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal) handles owners corporation disputes. Access Canberra oversees compliance.
