Question 1

What is a strata check?

Accepted Answer

A strata check is a review of a strata scheme’s records — financials, meeting minutes, by-laws, insurance, and capital works. Running strata checks before buying an apartment helps you spot hidden risks like special levies, building defects, or underfunded maintenance.

Question 2

What kind of strata report do I need to upload?

Accepted Answer

Any standard NSW strata search/inspection report — usually a 30–80 page PDF prepared by a strata search company. We extract the financials, meeting minutes, by-laws, insurance, and capital works plan automatically.

Question 3

Is the search free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Searching the 88,000+ plan database, viewing a plan, and viewing a manager profile are all free with no sign-up. Report analysis is also free for now.

Question 4

Is my strata report kept private?

Accepted Answer

Reports are processed server-side and deleted after analysis. We don't share content with third parties and we don't index uploaded reports in the public search.

Question 5

How accurate is automated analysis vs. a professional reviewer?

Accepted Answer

Automated analysis is excellent at extracting facts and flagging benchmarks. It's not a replacement for a qualified strata reviewer on a high-stakes purchase — think of it as a first pass that highlights what to ask about.

Question 6

Can I use this for buildings outside NSW?

Accepted Answer

Search and benchmarks are NSW-only today. Report upload analysis works for any Australian state but suburb-level benchmarks won't apply.

Question 7

How much does the report analysis cost?

Accepted Answer

It's free. No payment, no sign-up, no subscription. You get a full risk analysis across 7 categories benchmarked against 88,083 NSW strata plans.
