Michael Teys Email & Phone Number

My expertise is strata titled property management and law. I work as a strata management consultant & researcher helping strata managers achieve professionalism and become trusted advisors. My academic research and consulting help me to develop operating systems and training programs to professionalise strata management. I believe strata owners must pay more for professional assistance to meet the ever increasing requirements for compliance and strata health and safety. Climate change, aging building stocks, and the building defects crisis are making the job of strata committees and managers harder. Despite this there has been a a race to the bottom on fees. This serves no one. However, strata owners will only pay for more when they see value and professionalisation of strata management. This means transparent pricing for value, and developing specialist knowledge ultimately taught at a university level. I have a Masters in Philosophy (MPhil) from UNSW Built Environment where I won an Australian Research Council Scholarship to work with City Futures Research Centre project 'Reassembling the city: understanding resident-led collective property sales'. The topic of my MPhil thesis is 'The evolution of the anti-commons: Exploring the impact of stratum titled mixed use property on urban renewal'. I also have a Bachelor of laws. Training strata managers has always an important part of my work.
