Five year review of WA's strata law

Learn more about this State Government legislative review and opportunities to provide feedback.

The State Government is undertaking a five-year statutory review of WA’s strata law (the Strata Titles Act 1985) that includes two public consultations. The October 2024 phase one consultation is focussed on identifying issues, which will then be examined prior to a second consultation being held in the first half of 2025 to share potential strata law reforms for public comment.

Each consultation phase will be guided by a discussion paper and online feedback form. Anyone with interest in improving WA’s strata law is encouraged to provide feedback.

The review aims to expand the wide-ranging legislative improvements that started in 2020 to make strata clearer and fairer for WA strata owners, residents, and industry professionals. Three key themes will inform the review’s scope, guiding its research and consultation focus:

  1. Improving cost controls in strata titles schemes
  2. Enhance strata living
  3. Strata manager practice and standards

Landgate is administering the review and its consultation activity on behalf of the Minister for Lands, ahead of a final report being prepared for Parliament from mid-2025.

Phase one consultation – open 1 to 31 October 2024
