This is a part 1 of our Blog Series about Owner Management Companies (Management Companies).
The Multi-Unit Development Act was enacted in April 2011 with the aim of addressing some of the historic issues that affected Owner Management Companies in the past.
Whether the Act has overcome all of these issues is a matter of opinion but it cannot be denied that it has improved the situation in general. For OMC’s, their directors and members the Act has provided a more structured set of requirements that they are required to follow.
