If you’ve had a stratzam anager that just never meets expectations, you’re not alone. In Western Australia, owners can feel stuck with managers who don’t return calls, fail to maintain buildings, or don’t act in the best interests of their strata community. The good news? Under the Strata Titles Act WA, you can fire your strata manager and appoint a new one.

When Can You Change Your Strata Manager in WA?

Strata management contracts in WA usually run for a set term, but owners have the right to review, renew, or replace their manager. Common reasons to change include:

• Poor communication or responsiveness
• Unexplained fee increases
• Failure to manage maintenance or levies correctly
• Loss of confidence from the owners’ council

Steps to Fire or Replace a Strata Manager

1. Review the contract – Check the term, notice period, and termination clauses.
2. Call a general meeting – A majority of owners can vote to replace the manager.
3. Document the decision – Follow the proper process so the termination is valid.
4. Appoint a new manager – Choose a professional strata company that is transparent, responsive, and accountable.
