What is the definition of a strata title?
The best way to understand strata title property is to use an example. A multi-story structure, for example, is divided into distinct lots such as houses or independent floors when a developer constructs under a strata scheme. On the other hand, the segmentation is not only vertical but also lateral. Horizontal strata development is exemplified by freestanding properties scattered across a large region. Strata lots are sometimes known as strata units or condominiums.
Strata title developments come in a variety of shapes and sizes:
- Business-related
- Mixed-use property
- Apartment with maid service
- The retail industry
- Parks & Recreation
- Hotels and resorts
When you buy a strata-titled property, you automatically become a co-owner of the common areas on the property. This means that an owner’s stake in a strata unit cannot be separated from his part of vested interests in the society’s common properties, such as parks, gardens, and gyms. A strata lot owner, for example, is not permitted to sell their proportionate share of the shared assets while maintaining ownership of the strata unit. With such properties, you also have ownership of taking care of them and invest in it.
