Disputes in Kurraba Point
This building is named in 5 published decisions. Across Kurraba Point, 9 decisions name a strata plan.

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: Kurraba Point has 685 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 Kurraba Point suburb profile.
