Two-lot strata in Lake Macquarie
Strata administration for duplexes and two-lot schemes in Lake Macquarie, NSW. $395 + GST a year for the scheme, no meetings, no insurance commissions, no money handled. Class 1 licensed strata manager based in Lake Macquarie.
From Belmont and Swansea round to Toronto, Warners Bay and Cardiff, Lake Macquarie is duplex country. Townhouse Strata is based at Caves Beach, so these are our neighbours as well as our clients.
What we do for Lake Macquarie duplexes
- Keep the strata roll and records in a secure vault both owners can see
- Check the building insurance every year — right name, right sum insured, $20m liability
- Draft the written resolutions the law requires and chase the second signature
- Issue the Section 184 certificate within about 36 business hours when a home sells
- Send both owners an annual compliance statement
All for $395 + GST a year for the whole scheme. You keep paying the insurer and any trades directly; we never hold your money.
Local, not remote
Duplex Strata is run by Townhouse Strata, a Lake Macquarie firm managing small schemes across the Hunter and Central Coast. If something needs a set of eyes on site in Lake Macquarie, that's a short drive, not a call centre. See how it works or read the guides.
- 1 October 2026: two-lot schemes stop lodging the annual Strata Hub report (NSW Fair Trading, "Changes to strata laws").
- Small strata scheme rules (no meetings, decisions by written resolution of both owners, new s 7A): in a Bill that has passed the Legislative Assembly and is before the Legislative Council. They start on a date to be proclaimed. Until then, where the law still requires a meeting we hold a short online one for you at no extra cost.
- Unchanged: the duty to insure the building for full replacement value in the owners corporation's name, to keep common property in repair, to keep a strata roll and records, and to provide a Section 184 certificate when a lot is sold.
No meetings, no commissions, no money handled. Both owners sign online.
