Disputes in Freshwater

No published decision names this building. Across Freshwater, 7 decisions name a strata plan — spread over 5 buildings.

NCAT (tribunal)

Court

Buildings involved
5 of 205

NCAT cases are usually internal to a scheme — by-laws, levies, repairs, access to records. Court cases usually involve builders or insurers over defects, because those claims exceed the tribunal's jurisdiction. A per-1,000-lot rate isn't shown: Freshwater has 2,229 lots, small enough that a single litigious building would move it several-fold. These are published decisions only — most strata disputes settle or are resolved without a judgment, so this is a floor, not a count. See the Freshwater suburb profile.
