We have advised or acted for over 250 Management Corporations of strata-titled developments (“MCSTs”) across residential, commercial, retail, industrial and mixed developments. Our work reflects deep familiarity with the Building Maintenance and Strata Management Act 2004 (“BMSMA”) and the practical realities of estate governance.
Our team routinely assists MCSTs in debt recovery matters against subsidiary proprietors, including arrears in contributions to the maintenance and sinking funds. This includes issuing letters of demand, lodging MC Charges or Total Discharge of Charge with the Singapore Land Authority, exercising statutory powers of sale, initiating court proceedings, and enforcing judgments through garnishee orders, seizure and sale, bankruptcy, winding-up, and examination of judgment debtors.
We also advise on a wide range of estate management issues, such as unapproved renovation works, improper handover of records, potential breaches of duty by prior council members, privatisation levies, common property disputes, contractor management, and enforcement of by-laws.
Our experience includes representing MCSTs in building defects claims against developers, architects, main contractors, and qualified persons. We have expertise in litigation, mediation, expert engagement, and settlement negotiations. We also regularly appear before the Strata Titles Boards (“STB”) and have assisted en bloc developers in applying for the termination of strata schemes.
