WA Strata Titles Act 1985 — Key 2020 Reforms
The 2018 Amendment Act commenced in May 2020, modernising WA strata law for the first time in 35 years. Here's what changed and what it means for your strata company.
How the WA Directory Works
No dedicated strata register — so we built the next best thing
WA has no state licensing register specific to strata managers (unlike Victoria's BLA or NSW's StrataHub). This directory aggregates managers from SCA WA and Google Maps data — 99 in total — giving councils the broadest available picture.
Reviews are independently matched
We cross-reference each manager against its Google Business listing by name and address. 46 managers have verified review histories totalling 2,711 reviews. We don't accept payment to add, remove, or reweight anything.
WA's unique challenges
Perth's canal estates in Mandurah, the Scarborough beachfront redevelopment, and the South West holiday rental market each create distinct management demands. The 2020 reforms introduced community titles and modernised dispute resolution through SAT.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a strata manager in Western Australia?
A strata manager handles the day-to-day administration of a strata company under the Strata Titles Act 1985 — levy collection, maintenance coordination, general meetings, insurance, and SAT dispute support. In WA the body that owns common property is called a "strata company" (not a body corporate), and its elected governance body is the "council" (not a committee).
Does WA have a strata manager licence register?
There is no dedicated strata-manager register in WA. However, strata managers must hold Real Estate and Business Agents Act 1978 (REBA) registration or work under a licensed agency — and these licences are searchable via the LGIRS online licence check. SCA WA accreditation is voluntary but indicates commitment to professional development and a code of conduct.
How does our council change strata managers in WA?
Review your existing contract for the notice period (typically 30–90 days). The strata company passes a resolution at a general meeting to appoint a new manager. Have the replacement manager's contract ready for the same meeting so the council can vote on both termination and appointment together. Get competing proposals from two or three managers beforehand.
How many strata companies are in Western Australia?
Western Australia has approximately 30,000 registered strata schemes covering 320,000 lots, according to Landgate / DMIRS. Perth accounts for the vast majority of schemes, with Fremantle and Mandurah also significant markets. The 2018 Strata Titles Amendment Act (commenced May 2020) introduced community titles and modernised the framework significantly.
What changed for WA strata in May 2020?
The Strata Titles Amendment Act 2018 commenced on 1 May 2020 — the first major overhaul of WA strata law in 35 years. Key changes: introduction of community titles for layered mixed-use developments, modernised by-law and dispute resolution frameworks, scheme termination by 80% majority (no longer requiring unanimity), and updated council meeting and record-keeping requirements. Consumer Protection WA oversees compliance.
Are any rankings sponsored or paid?
No. Managers cannot pay to appear, rank higher, or remove data. The site is funded by optional quote referrals — which never affect how managers are listed or scored.
