16 Cecil Street Gordon
SP 81440 Gordon Ku-Ring-Gai New South Wales
Verdict
Public record: 2 tribunal matters, no building-work orders. A reasonable pre-screen, but not the full picture, the financials and minutes that decide the purchase are in the report, not the registers. Read it, and obtain a section 184 strata search, before you bid.
Cost exposure
Indicative, itemised estimate of what one average 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.
Moderate- $8,300
Waterproofing and common-property repair
Indicative per-lot waterproofing and common-property repair levies (strata special-levy reporting). Scaled for: 1 matter.
- $3,700
Tribunal and legal costs
Indicative per-lot share of tribunal and legal costs in a strata dispute (NCAT). Scaled for: 2 matters.

Decisions naming this scheme, from NSW Caselaw (NCAT and the courts). The quoted line beneath each is the decision's own catchwords; the topic tag is our grouping of those words. Whether a matter helped or hurt the scheme is not assessed here.
Statutory-warranty outlook
- Structural cover
- Likely expired · est. expiry 4 November 2015
- Non-structural cover
- Ran to 4 November 2015
A single 7-year warranty period applies because the scheme was registered before the 1 February 2012 reform. Estimated from the registration date, not the completion date or building contract, so treat the dates as indicative.

What was checked, what it found, how strong the match, and when each source last ran. A source that has not run here yet reads as not checked, never as checked and clear.
