Draft budgets
We prepare practical draft budgets based on comparable developments and real management experience, helping developers plan for future operating costs, levies and shared service requirements.

New developments need the right structure before settlement. Our team works with developers to coordinate strata, precinct and community title setup, governance and handover planning, guiding schemes from completion to operation.
Every development has different requirements. Bright & Duggan supports new developments from planning to handover with practical guidance, clear setup advice and a smoother transition into long-term strata management.
We provide strata, body corporate, owners corporation and unit title advice to help developers identify management requirements before key project decisions are finalised.
We support strata and community scheme setup, including draft budgets, building rules, shared facilities, staged developments and complex titling structures.
We help prepare the transition from developer control to owner management, including management setup, first AGM preparation and owner communication.
Once the scheme is established, our team can support the transition into structured strata management, with specialist guidance for the future community.
New developments involve complex decisions around budgets, building rules, certificates, handover and long-term management. Bright & Duggan helps developers address these early, so the scheme is easier to manage once owners move in.
We prepare practical draft budgets based on comparable developments and real management experience, helping developers plan for future operating costs, levies and shared service requirements.
We support community schemes, staged developments, multiple strata plans and overlapping structures that require clear setup and long-term management planning.
We help prepare and review building rules that reflect the use, layout and requirements of the development, rather than relying on generic rules that may not suit the building.
Our developer consulting service provides strata advice for property developers, including scheme structure guidance, strata setup considerations, handover preparation and long-term management planning.
We provide guidance on building management committees (BMC), building management statements, strata management statements, shared facilities and complex titling arrangements where these affect the future setup, handover and long-term management of the scheme.
We help developers manage certificate processes during sales, settlement and handover. In NSW, this may include S184 certificates and related support to help reduce avoidable pressure during settlement.
Project planning
When key strata decisions are made at the right stage, developers can reduce settlement pressure and avoid confusion during the early months of owner management. Bright & Duggan works closely with project teams to define the practical foundations of how a scheme will operate, from operating costs and shared areas through to building rules, documentation and handover planning.
