THE STRATA EXPERIENCE SURVEY
Research at City Futures at UNSW Australia is calling for strata residents to complete a survey. It
asks what you like and dislike about strata living, whether you feel at home in your property and
how well managed it is.
The information you provide will help to understand how the needs of different people living in
strata schemes can best be accommodated and what can be done to make strata properties
attractive places to live for everyone. It take 10 minutes and you can enter a draw to win 1 of 5
$200 Visa Gift Cards.
To complete the survey, go to www.cityfutures.net.au and follow the 'Strata Experience Survey"
Link.
