The Strata Industry welcomes a champion to the fold
Announcement posted by Strata Match 15 Oct 2013
The strata industry is one that is extremely complex, which can be daunting for committees who are undertaking this volunteer role. Knowing who to turn to for help and advice can be difficult because of the different agendas at play. Over the last 12 months, over 25,000 clients have used the Strata Match service - an independent, transparent and free service which helps committees who are unhappy with their incumbent strata manager find a new one who is better suited to the individual needs of their strata property.
Strata Match’s service model is similar to that of the Mortgage Choice or iSelect models, in which Strata Match work with committees to find out what they want from their strata manager and then invite the most suitable strata providers to tender for the business (selected from a panel of quality and licenced managers). However, it is not merely a comparison service, it includes a free transition service. The Strata Match service helps committees transition from their old manager to new manager, ensuring that the process is conducted smoothly and professionally.
Strata Match make what can be a confusing and drawn out process easy, by working with committees to set clear specifications for the service they are looking for and then asking the strata provider to submit a tender/quote based on these specifications. Strata Match then conduct an analysis of the information and select the top tenders to present to the committee in an easy-to-understand summary.
The feedback from the many committees who have utilised this service has been overwhelmingly positive. Many are amazed at how stress-free and easy Strata Match make their transition to their new strata manager – they even attend the General Meeting to make sure everything goes smoothly.
