I own a second story unit in a block of 18 in Orelia, south of Fremantle. It is quite a nice 2 bedroom unit with a large deck. Unfortunately Orelia has some major problems with youths invading such blocks of units by kicking in steel fences and jumping over walls. Cars are damaged and anything of value not locked down is stolen. Our son Martin is living in the unit.
There are 18 units in the block and some of the owners refuse to pay the Strata fees. Whilst legal action has been taken on them, it is a long drawn-out problem and responsible owners have been hit with extra Strata fees to pay water bills etc.
The Strata management asked owners to attend a ‘Busy Bee’ this last Sunday with the idea of cleaning up gardens, pool and gazebo areas. Three owners turned up and we worked solidly for three+ hours. Busy Bee is an Australian term for a group work session without payment. Like me, the other two owners either lived in their unit or had family residing there.
Mean spirited act on the part of the other 15 owners.
Not as nice as it looks

Doesn't seem fair Kev, but I know it must look much nicer now. So Martin is not living with you now or is this where he use to live? Hope all are well, xo
