3 litigation matters on record
Tribunal and court decisions naming this scheme as a party. A litigious building is more likely to be carrying unresolved disputes, defects, or levy fights.
-
Building-defect dispute on record
A matter touches building defects or rectification work. Ask whether the work is funded and whether the builder's warranty still applies.
Statutory warranty: structural cover near the edge of the period (est. 19 November 2026); non-structural ran to 19 November 2022. NSW Home Building Act periods: 6 years for major or structural defects, 2 years for all others. Estimated from the registration date, not the completion date or building contract, so treat the dates as indicative.

Builder named across multiple schemes
Ceerose Pty Ltd is named in litigation at 3 strata schemes, a cross-scheme pattern worth checking before you buy.

No recent annual reporting on the Strata Hub
We could not find a current annual return for this scheme on the NSW Strata Hub. That may just be a gap in the public data, but a non-reporting scheme can also signal a disengaged committee, ask for the last two AGM minutes.
Cost exposure
Elevated exposureAn indicative, itemised estimate of what one lot here could face, built only from this scheme's public-record signals. Indicative ranges, not this building's actual figures, and not financial advice.
Special levies are apportioned by unit entitlement. Set this from your contract; 1.0× is an average lot.
| Driver | Good | Expected | Worst |
|---|---|---|---|

Estimate only. Figures are indicative ranges from public remediation programs and reporting, apportioned to one lot; they are not this building's costed works and not financial advice. Obtain the capital works fund balance, any special levy resolved or proposed, and a strata records search before you transact.
Questions to ask before you bid
- 1
What building defects have been identified, is there a funded rectification plan, and does the builder's warranty still apply?
Because we found a building-defect dispute on record.
- 2
The building's builder is named in disputes at other schemes, is the original builder still solvent for a warranty claim?
Because Ceerose Pty Ltd appears at 3 schemes.
- 3
What is the capital works (sinking) fund balance, its adequacy ratio, and the 10-year plan?
- 4
Are any special levies raised, proposed, or scoped-but-not-yet-levied?
- 5
Can I see the last two years of AGM minutes, including any motions that were defeated?
