Description:
Body Corporate Responsibilities QLD outlines the division of duties between the body corporate and individual lot owners. Generally speaking, a body corporate is responsible for common property. Responsibilities of a body corporate typically include administering the scheme, maintaining common property, arranging compulsory insurance cover and operating common facilities and infrastructure throughout a community titles scheme.
Lot owners are typically responsible for maintaining their lot, property and possessions within the lot. Responsibility is usually determined by survey plans, lot boundaries, exclusive-use provisions and the nature of the scheme itself. These concepts are important to understand when discussing repairs and maintenance issues and responsibilities as well as insurance matters.
A general rule of thumb when determining responsibility is that common property cannot belong to an individual. Items that would typically be common property would include access ways, gardens, facilities and common infrastructure. Insurance responsibilities are also separated in this way. Generally speaking, buildings insurance policies will insure both the insured building and common property. Contents policies are arranged privately to cover possessions and contents within a lot.
