Scheme-specific reminder

Community-scheme rules can differ. Always check the current rules, approvals and documents for the specific complex or scheme.

What to know

  • Compare actual income and expenditure with the approved budget.
  • Look for levy arrears, cash-flow pressure, large creditor balances or repeated emergency expenditure.
  • Review planned maintenance, insurance valuations and reserve-fund contributions.
  • Read minutes for recurring disputes, major building work, security changes and planned special contributions.
