FAQ - Body Corporate Overview

A body corporate is a legal entity created when there are two or more lots registered with common property. It exists by virtue of the plan creating the lots and common property being registered at the titles office.

 

The Body Corporate consists of the owners of lots in the scheme or complex. Every owner of a lot in the scheme is automatically a member of the Body Corporate – you cannot choose to “opt out”.
