In this week's podcast we ask leading strata lawyer David Sachs to run the rule over some of the questions in our Forum.For instance, can the owners corporation charge Airbnb hosts the difference if insurers increase premiums because there are short-term holiday lets in the block?Is it okay to have a paper only AGM with the committee elected by pre-meeting electronic votes?Who pays the costs when a renovator has to get a retrospective by-law for works done without permission?Which law – anti-discrimination or building codes – takes precedence when an owner wants a chairlift installed in a common property stairwell?Can an ordinary owner take a strata manager to the tribunal for failure to fulfill their responsibilities?What can an owner do if their motion for the AGM is left off the agenda when it is published?There are answers to all those questions and more in this week's Flat Chat Wrap.____________________________________________________Flat Chat is all about apartment living, especially in Australia.Find us on Facebook and Twitter and the Flat Chat website.Send comments and questions to mail@flatchat.com.au.Register to ask and answer questions about apartment living anonymously on the website.Recorded by Jimmy Thomson & Sue Williams; Transcribed by Otter.ai; Transcription tidied up and sensified by Raphie.Find out more about Sue Williams and Jimmy Thomson on their websites.

My topics come because I look for a book to buy on the subject and can't find one. I know it's supposed to be fancier than that, or that there must be some grand theory of my work, but there isn't one. That said, my readers seem to enjoy what I've written, so maybe it's fine? I am inspired by my literary heroes, including Robert Caro, Laura Hillenbrand, Candice Millard, Daniel James Brown, and Barbara Tuchman, among many others. They are all rigorous researchers—but reading their books doesn't feel like doing homework. That's what I'm going for, and hopefully I hit the mark a few times. For me, books are all-consuming projects, leaving little other time for the things that should populate this section like hobbies, interests, and even the ability to remain in basic touch with people. I enjoy obsessing over a subject for years, and my goal is to find as much information as possible and then make the material readable for a general audience. When not writing or reading, I spend time with my daughter in Brooklyn, NY.

Podcast: Defects, debts and dream bathrooms

Sometimes we are just too efficient for our own good. No sooner had we sent this week's podcast off for transcription than the news broke that NSW Building Commissioner David Chandler had announced he will be leaving the job in November – just weeks after he signed a year-long extension to his contract. We've covered that in detail HERE and will pick up on the news for next week's podcast. Meanwhile, there's plenty to talk about this week, including the TV report that they have discovered that apartment blocks in Victoria have defects. Who knew? You can watch the ABC report HERE. There's the anti-strata beat-up about the couple from Earlwood in Sydney who, thanks to bad advice saw an $18,000 special levy blow out to a $44,000 debt – and that was after they had paid off $13,000. Then, on the subject of debts, we have a chunk of last week's interview with strata lawyer David Sachs which I cut out and set aside for this week as it's mainly about Section 232 of the NSW strata Act and the various – almost limitless – ways it can be used to resolve disputes. Then we talk about the things we like about hotels that end up being included in apartment designs. So there's lots to talk about before next week, when rest assured we will get into why David Chandler resigned and what kind of building commissioner the NSW government will be looking for to replace him. TRANSCRIPT IN FULL Jimmy 00:00 Okay, back from Bali. Sue 00:02 Yes. Jimmy 00:03 With no suntan, but a lot of mosquito bites. Sue 00:07 Yes, but much more relaxed and happy and content. Jimmy 00:13 Well, I was until we had to sit on the plane next to a teenage girl who refused to put a mask on. Sue 00:20 Yes, that was very annoying, wasn't it, really? And she wasn't the only one, there were quite a few people on the plane who weren't wearing masks, which is a bit disturbing. Jimmy 00:27 Because it says on the announcement, that it's a legal requirement that you wear a mask for the duration of the flight. Sue 00:33 But it's pretty hard for the air stewards to insist. They kept coming around and reminding people and people would put on the mask... Jimmy 00:39 And then as soon as they were gone, take it off again. And then they ask you to respect people's choices, which means you can't grab them by the throat and say "put your effing mask on." Sue 00:40 Even though you want to. Jimmy 00:52 Very much so. So today, we are going to talk about... Apparently they've just discovered defects in buildings in Melbourne; it was a big thing on the TV while we were away (shock, horror). Welcome to the real world. And, we're going to have another chat about that. What I think was a confected scandal, about the old couple who couldn't pay their levies... I think we were the first to (apart from the story that broke in the Sun-Herald before we left).. We were the first people to actually pick up on that and comment on it, so I think we're entitled to have another swing at it, now that we've had a chance to think. And, David Sachs, the strata lawyer, was talking about debts last week. And I chopped out a thing (because we kind of went off on a tangent at one point), to talk about section 232, which is part of the act that basically, allows you to resolve disputes with your strata committee, or your strata scheme. So, that's quite a lot really, isn't it? Sue 01:59 Absolutely. Jimmy 02:00 I'm Jimmy Thomson, I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. Sue 02:04 And I'm Sue Williams and I write about property for Domain. Jimmy 02:07 And this is the Flat Chat Wrap. [MUSIC] Jimmy So, apartment blocks in Melbourne have defects... Who'd have thunk it? Sue 02:28 It's interesting. I guess this story about the defects in the Melbourne block got a lot of traction, because the couple who live in the building were prepared to face up to the med...

Podcast – all you need to know about levy debt

We Study Billionaires - The Investorâ€™s Podcast Network

Last week saw the publication of a confected scandal of an elderly couple who'd been given bad advice, blaming their owners corporation for a special levy of $18,000 that had blown out to a debt of $44,000. As we pointed out in this story, and on this podcast, the owners corp were probably just fulfilling their legal obligation to fix common property and charge owners according to their unit entitlements. But the appallingly one-sided yarn glossed over the influence of the financial and legal advisers who got the couple into that financial hole and instead took potshots at the strata committee and owners corp. Anyway, purely by coincidence, the previous week I had sat down with David Sachs, principal of Sachs Gerace Lawyers to talk about levy debts, how they can be recovered and what you should and shouldn't do when they mount up for one owner. This includes tracking down overseas investors who leave their units empty and never pay levies ... which may involve hiring private detectives in foreign countries. Ooooh... exciting! But seriously, David provides a calm voice of reason in what can be a highly emotive area … something that was notably lacking in the previously mentioned “fake news” travesty. TRANSCRIPT IN FULL Jimmy 00:03 Last week, before the story blew up about the old couple in Earlwood being (allegedly) driven out of their home because of a levies debt, I interviewed David Sachs from our sponsors, Sachs Gerace Lawyers, mainly about debt. That was something we'd organised well in advance, so it's purely coincidental... and this is by way of an explanation, if people listen to this and think "well, why are you not talking about that story that was in the Sun-Herald?" The reason is, it hadn't happened yet. I'm Jimmy Thomson, I write the Flat Chat column for the Australian Financial Review. And this is a very special Flat Chat Wrap. [MUSIC] Jimmy I am with David Sachs of Sachs Gerace Lawyers, here in Woolloomooloo, technically, and we're going to talk about levy debts and what you can do about them and what you can't do about them. Good afternoon, David. David Sachs 01:26 Hi, Jimmy. Jimmy 01:27 Okay, question one; there is a mandatory 10% penalty rate for unpaid levies, or overdue levies... When does that kick in? David Sachs 01:38 Well, I would never use the word 'penalty.' It's actually a bit of a black mark for lawyers, because penalties mean, you can't recover it. But, there is interest that is chargeable, and it is chargeable from, I guess, the day after the levy is due, but unpaid, but, there's a grace period, so that if you pay within a month after the levies are due, then you're not charged the interest. But, if you paid two days later, then you'll pay for the full 30 days, plus two days. Jimmy 02:09 Which is a proportion of the 10%. David Sachs 02:12 Yes, it's 10% per annum, just calculated in the ordinary ways. So if there was a $100 debt, then 10% of it will be $10, and that would be calculated on a daily basis. It accrues notionally for the first month, but it's only able to be recovered, if the levies are not paid within that one month grace period. Jimmy 02:34 What processes does a strata scheme have to take, to get unpaid levies back? David Sachs 02:42 So there's procedures that are specified in the Act that every strata manager would know about, but it's essentially, you make sure that a valid levy has been struck that the notices to pay the levies have been issued, that the requisite amount of time has been allowed for people to pay. You've got to allow at least 30 days for people to pay, then if they don't pay them, you've got to give them a notice with information that's required under the Act about that payment; how the things' been calculated, etc. And then, after that point, an owners corporation can recover it like any other debt. So most of the time, you'll be commencing a case in the small claims d...

William (Bill) Matthews has been dealing in old & rare books, manuscripts, maps and related material since 1976. He began working for a bookshop in Saskatoon, then opened his own in Vancouver in 1976, and subsequently moved to Toronto in 1980. He was in Ontario until 1996 when he moved to San Francisco / Berkeley and was part of Peter Howard's Serendipity Books for a few years. He's now the proud owner of The Haunted Bookshop, a bricks and mortar shop in Sydney, B.C. just north of Victoria. We met in the shop to talk about Bill's career in the used book business, about young collectors; Odean Long, previous long-time owner of The Haunted Bookshop; pseudonymously and anonymously authored books; scouting trips, Acres of Books in Cincinnati, little book fairs, book scouts Martin Stone and David Sachs, Driff's Guide to All the Second-hand and Antiquarian Bookshops in Britain, fantasy fiction, booksellers Peter Howard and Bill Hoffer, the great Winnipeg book sale, Maurice Sendak, and much more. After our conversation Bill and I chatted a bit about Saskatoon, where the two of us had grown up, discovering that we'd both gone to the same high school, at the same time - in the same grade. Bill later produced the yearbook to prove it. Apologies in advance for the poor audio quality (something about soft-spoken booksellers and the acoustics of used bookstores).

People who don't care about pets in apartments shouldn't switch off just yet, regardless of how bored you are with the whole issue. It has implications for everyone in apartments, whether you have pets or not, as you may discover when your upstairs neighbour starts stomping around on their new, cheap timber floor. Letting ourselves off the leash this week, we also explore why Sydney's rents are going down a lot in some areas but up even more in others. Listen Here And we look at the fuel of the future and ask why we aren't pumping money itnto its development right now. But first we ask strata lawyer David Sachs of Sachs Gerace Lawyers, what are the far-reaching consequences of the Appeals Court decision last week in the case between Jo Cooper and the Owners Corporation of the Horizon building in Sydney - that have nothing to do with pets. Basically speaking, the NSW Court of Appeal ruled that Owners Corporations can't pass by-laws about what an owner does or has in their apartment if it doesn't impact on other owners' right to peaceful enjoyment of their lot. More to the point, there are remedies in strata law to pull owners into line if they get it wrong so pre-emptive by-laws that assume the worst are considered "harsh, discriminatory and unconscionable" and therefore invalid. What does that mean for other by-laws? We ask David the following questions in our podcast chat this week: Does the Court of Appeal ruling mean all no-pet bylaws are now defunct?Can buildings still impose restrictions on the type and size of pets?Can they ban pets from common property?Can they require owners to carry pets across common property?What implications does the ruling have for other by-laws?Will we expect more issues to be taken to NCAT e.g. when pets turn out to be a nuisance?Is NCAT up to handling an increased load of (predictably) emotional and contentious cases.Will the definition of "nuisance" need to be redefined in the current review of strata law. David's answers are authoritative and enlightening and he also takes time to support the people we routinely lambast in these pages - the NCAT Members who sit in judgement on our trails and tribulations. After that, Sue gives us a roundup of the areas of Sydney that are winning and losing on the rental roller-coaster ... and why. And Jimmy is talking trains that produce steam but run on an altogether cleaner fuel than coal. The Podcast transcribed Jimmy and Sue's dulcet tones transcribed for those who can't or prefer not to listen. They are joined by strata lawyer David Sachs. Be warned: This was transcribed by a soul-less American computer and edited by a grumpy Scot. But it still makes more sense than a Donald Trump diatribe. Jimmy 00:00 Got a post on the Flat Chat Forum this week from Jo Cooper ... name ring a bell? Sue 00:09 The owner of Angus, the now-legal dog in the Horizon building, and it's a Schnauzer. Jimmy 00:14 Yep, and basically, she was writing to tell me that I'm wrong. Because I said that there should be apartment blocks that people can go to. Even though I'm pro-pet, I believe that there should be apartment blocks that people can go and live in, who really don't want to live in the same building as pets. She said you can't have that. Because buildings have to allow support animals like guide dogs. And the law says you can't forbid them. So all it takes is one person to bring in a support animal and that whole argument about people's health and allergies and things goes out the window. Anyway, so it's been pets, pets, pets all week ever since that ruling at the Appeals Court. So this week, we have a special guest, David Sachs from Sachs Gerace Lawyers, who has a pretty interesting take on what that appeal court decision means not just about pets, but about by-laws in general. I'm Jimmy Thomson. Sue And I'm Sue Williams … Jimmy And this is the Flat Chat Wrap.

Sometimes the way we want to live influences architecture, sometimes architecture influences the way we live. There are still older blocks dotted around Sydney’s harbour suburbs where someone who wanted a penthouse with a view, constructed several floors of units for rent to support (in so many ways) the fabulous pad on the roof. Some original apartment blocks in our inner-cities have tiny kitchens because they originally had restaurants and dining rooms on their roofs (and dumb waiter pulley systems to deliver meals to those who didn’t want to leave their apartments). In this week’s Flat Chat Wrap, Sue Williams discusses a feature she’s written that examines the effect of the current lockdown on the way apartments will be designed in the future. With more people working from home, two trains of thought are in motion. One, working from home can be a great thing, either permanently or part-time. Two, our homes aren’t ideally set up to allow us to do that. Architects whom Sue has interviewed predict popular demand for proper studies, balconies and shared open spaces, as well as more clearly defined separate areas within the apartments so that residents can get away from each other when they need to. Even two-story apartments could be the next big thing. Home working injuries Sue also raises the issue of workplace injuries in the home – apparently your employer is responsible for your workplace safety, even when you are working off your own dining table. With that in mind, Jimmy explains how squeezing an invisible orange can help your posture, especially when you spend hours hunched over your laptop on a coffee table. A strata lawyer speaks Also in this week’s podcast Jimmy and Sue chat with specialist strata lawyer David Sachs of Sachs Gerace Lawyers about the new short-term letting by-law provision in NSW and the ability of owners corporations to hold general meetings electronically, despite the Catch-22 of not being able to hold the meetings required to permit electronic meetings. Jimmy pats himself on the back for coming up with the one-person EGM plan which David says is perfectly legal, but suggests holding a plebiscite first, to show that the majority of owners want approval for electronic meetings. FYI, since this podcast was recorded, the Queensland government has announced that all body corporate meetings can now be conducted remotely, via electronic interfaces and voting, without requiring prior approval of owners. Surely NSW and Victoria can’t be too far behind, and avoid the one-person EGMs that Jimmy suggested. One interesting observation from David is that owner corps often “push the envelope” with their decisions to achieve a specific outcome, and they can operate for years until someone who wants something different decides to challenge them at a tribunal. Coronavirus guide Later, Jimmy explains why the NSW SCA guide to dealing with coronavirus is really good but also just a bit too much. Should information for strata managers and building managers be lumped in with essential advise for owners, committees and other residents? As in this post, he says no. Sue’s “Hey Martha!” is about how Captain Tom Moore raised $55 million for British National Health Service charities … and got to top of the pops. And Jimmy chooses a video showing how a deaf dog discovers it’s time for “walkies”! Listen here

“A psychoanalytic consultant is really the enemy of people ignoring the role that the unconscious has in their lives, just denying that there is an unconscious effect on their rationally selected behavior. I strongly believe that the interferences from the unconscious can be minimized by a consultant, just as we can minimize the irrational influence on patients in our work with mental illness.” Description: Steven S. Rolfe welcomes Dr. David Sachs to this episode.

Dr. David Sachs is one of our pioneers, he has worked off the couch from a relatively early time in his career and we will hear today about how his interest in business and organizational consulting grew and was deeply influenced by his training and experience as a psychoanalyst. Key takeaways: [3:15] How Dr. David Sachs’ training and experience prepared him to consult with businesses. [4:00] Analyst’s skills applied to consulting with people in the business world. [5:17] How Dr. Sachs views have shifted about Psychoanalysis over the years. [7:03] Difference between analysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy in consulting to businesses. [9:10] How Dr. Sachs colleagues responded to his interest in applied psychoanalysis. [14:40] Example in which Dr. Sachs applied psychoanalytic ideas to a corporate consultation. [21:04] How Dr. Sachs consulting experience has influenced his career as a psychoanalyst. [22:15] Supervision similarities in business consulting and psychoanalysis. [24:52] Kind of problems Dr. Sachs has addressed as a consultant. [29:40] Psychoanalytic business consulting provides people the opportunity to discover hidden irrational interest that prevent them from reaching their goals.
