About this building
5 Schaeffer Close is a small 4-lot residential strata scheme in Grafton, registered in 1988 and now about 38 years old. It is managed by SMS Coffs Harbour Pty Ltd and is one of 166 strata plans in Grafton (Clarence Valley council area). Every unit at 5 Schaeffer Close (lots 1–4) is part of strata scheme SP33521, so the levies, by-laws and disputes below apply to all of them. We found no NCAT tribunal decisions naming SP33521, though the site does fall within a mapped flood planning area.

Disputes in Grafton
No published NCAT or court decision names a strata plan in Grafton — including this building. That is not the same as no disputes: most strata disputes settle or are decided without a published judgment, and only decisions that name a plan number can be matched to a building at all.
