Lot Owners
If a Lot Owner is having complications with their Strata Management Company, they can lodge a formal complaint with SCA (WA) provided their Strata Management Company is a member with SCA (WA).
​
SCA (WA) also has an advisory service for lot owners if they have questions about strata. Please note that this service is only available to SCA (WA) Members.

Are you new to the concept of strata? We have addressed some of the basics in the below FAQ's to help give you a general understanding about the different parties involved in strata and why strata is necessary.
Advisory Service
The SCA (WA) Advisory Service is a way for Lot Owners to ask their strata questions to impartial strata experts. This service is available to all of our Lot Owner members.​
Who answers queries submitted to the advisory service?
We have a wonderful team of volunteers with extensive experience in the strata sphere providing responses through the advisory service. Each advisor must have over five years of experience as a strata manager.
Do I have to pay to submit a query?
SCA (WA) is a member-based organisation, so the advisory service is only available to members.
Are there questions that are unable to be answered by the advisory service?
