Welcome to our latest newsletter full of strata title information from around Australia.
Our Strata State FactSheets for all states and territories around Australia have been a great hit. Have you visited your state's FactSheet yet? Just like the whole LookUpStrata site, content is added regularly and information on each state and topic just keeps growing!
Welcome this edition to our new blog author Terry Emselle, Resiflor with some excellent information on how to make the right choice when deciding on a floor covering for your common areas. Plus lots of other great articles from our regular - well, fantastic - contributors.
I am working out of Bali this week! I will be accessing emails daily, but will leave all non urgent matters until I return to the office around the 16th October. Thank you for your understanding. I may even post a few pics to the LookUpStrata Facebook page.
Please forward this newsletter on to others who may be interested. We thank you for your support! If you have received this email but you are not yet subscribed to our growing list, you can join us by subscribing here.
Kind regards
Nikki
