repairs: 1233 1235 1237 1239 west 7th ave

This is the backside of a development on west 7th ave, the ‘Casarosa’. Once the scaffolding and green netting is removed this is the side that will have the good view of downtown (unless that mushroom studios building in front is developed into something taller).

3 buildings totalling 237 units under the same owners strata have paid legal fees of nearly $1.5M between 2003 and 2007; and a further $1.2M is allotted for legal fees, in addition to $29M to repair the leaks.
Resident Dave said his share of legal fees will be $4,640 and repair costs $120k.
Half of that legal fees (4640/2=) $2,320 had to be paid by December 15 last year.
1/3 of the repair costs $34,800 must be paid by middle of January this year,
Balance of ½ legal fees and 2/3 repair costs to be paid by monthly instalments –
Hence Dave’s monthly payment (over $3,200) consists of:
- nearly $400 strata fee
- $100 legal fees
- $2,706 repair costs
