Good Afternoon All,

I will ask the plumber to provide a quote to have a gutter installed on the soffit of the slab to catch the drip.

That sounds good. I would want to see an undertaking from Mr Laforest that if we install a drip tray at our expense that he withdraw his action and indemnify us from further action regarding this so called dripping water.

Matt.

Hi Matt,

Thats my thoughts exactly.

I spoke to George who said we can get a drip tray for about $1,000 installed. He will be sending an email shortly.

Have a great Christmas all. I will be checking emails but only from time to time.

Should you have any queries regarding the above, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Have a nice day,

Hi Pia,
 So if we are "liable" for it should we not be fixing it instead of spending money defending it.  George seemed to indicate that based on other buildings it was not our responsibility to fix it .

I think it best that you and George discuss and get back to us with an opinion on if we should fix or defend.

Have a good Christmas if I dont talk to you before.

Matt.

Hi everyone,

Yes I'm a bit confused as well. I thought the water leaks into 601 had been resolved and looking again at the photographs Craig provided it seems that the issue is all about the calcium stains although he does state "into my kitchen".

I understand Craig is away at the moment (6 weeks?) but I think we should try and work with him to resolve this issue and not resort to legal action. This is only going to result in financial pain for the OC and Craig appears to have unlimited funds to plough into this.

I do have some sympathy with Craig. The water stains are unsightly but I'm not convinced the OC is responsible for sorting this out. I have a problem with efflorescence on my balcony (a common area?) but I assumed that this is my problem to fix!

Cheers

Andrew.

George has advised that water penetration has been fixed inside the apartment.  I believe the only outstanding issue is the outside balcony related dripping.

Can you confirm this. Perhaps George and Pia you can get discuss. George has also suggested a drip tray and on chatting to George He has suggest that the drip tray would be far less then $5k

Hi Matt,

We would only be able to sue for costs if we win the actual matter.

As per the email below, we would only have a 50/50 chance of winning the case. Perhaps we should just investigate to fix the water penetration?

Hi Pia,
 Did the lawyers give any indication as to the validity of Mr La forest  claims and the prospects of us wining this action. As it appears this will cost the building 5k+ to defend are there any prospects of Mr LaForest having to pay costs or is that not how these actions work and we have to pay our own costs, also could perhaps if he were to win be awarded costs. Considering Mr LaForest has always engaged a QC in the past it may be possible that loosing this action may cost the strata $15k+ in addition to us having to clean the balcony of 601 on an ongoing basis.  This whole episode could easily costs the owners corporation $20k if costs could be award.

Could you give us an outline of this process and any potential remedy  at our disposal. Brook do you know anything about this process could costs be awarded or are we all responsible for our own.


Matt.

Hi Pia,

Thanks for sending this through. I've reviewed the Application, and although it is difficult to speculate without making further enquiries, there may be a technical defence available to the Owners Corporation which may be able to be utilised to avoid its Section 62 obligations.

However ordinarily, these types of cases are routinely won by the owners of the Apartment(s) affected. I would put the Owners Corporation's chances at no higher than 50:50 in this matter.

Accordingly, I would recommend the Owners Corporation save its fees and instead work with the owner affected to come to a 'confidential and binding' agreement and timetable to repair his balcony. If the OC are concerned about setting a precedent effect in the building, they should have the owner sign a Confidential Deed so that no one outside of the Committee will know of the terms of settlement.

If the Owners Corporation wish to proceed to defend the Adjudication after all though, then I attach my Schedule of Fees.

Kind regards,
Tom
