Why pick us to be your body corporate manager?
All body corporate buildings and committees are different. We understand that your
committee is not looking for the exact same guidance and answers as your neighbours, and
that you need tailored advice and solutions that are exactly right for your body corporate.
That is why we at BCsystems believe that it takes a direct personal approach to get strata
management right. Body corporate and community management in Queensland is heavily
regulated, and regulation brings complexity. Our strata managers’ strength is in working
directly with your committee to set your goals, and then we will navigate the complexity for
you.
In addition to providing your committee with expertise whenever you request it, we also
provide support when you haven’t asked us. That is the benefit of having a long-term stable
relationship with your dedicated strata manager. After 27 year of implementing our
personalised and expert approach, we have developed client relationships that are built on
trust.
