Strata Title
Strata title commonly refers to units/flats, apartments or townhouses, with common areas such as stairways, foyers, roof-top gardens, lifts and even swimming pools shared by each owner. A body corporate, or strata or owners corporation, is set up to handle maintenance of common areas and insurance of the buildings.
Strata title can also refer to duplex and triplex houses that share, for example, only a driveway or garden area.

Strata Insurance explained in a minute
Strata Insurance - also referred to in some states as Body Corporate, Owners Corporation, Common Property or Residential Strata Insurance - applies to multiple residential buildings on a parcel of land. It applies to strata title properties.
Who is Strata Insurance managed by?
Strata insurance is usually managed by a strata manager, property manager or unit owner who’s been asked to manage the policy and cost on behalf of all the owners. The term differs depending on which state you’re in. Your building may already be insured if your property is part of a strata or other group scheme. It’s worth checking.
What if I don't have a strata manager or property manager?
If you’re the owner of a unit in a complex, it’s likely that your building is managed by a body of some sort already. If you’re not sure, check with the real estate agent that you bought the property through or do a strata or other title search of the building.
If you own a property that isn’t managed by a body – for example, if you have one of two properties that only share a driveway - you’ll need legal advice about whether you need to set up an appropriate body with your neighbour.
