G’day … I’m Boxie, your friendly body corporate info guy.
My office has a really long title so get ready … The Office of the Commissioner for Body Corporate and Community Management. Or BCCM for short.
If you live, invest or work in bodies corporate, we’re your go-to source of information.
We provide information on a number of body corporate legislations. These include the Body Corporate and Community Management Act and associated regulations, and the Building Units and Group Titles Act and Specified Acts.
It helps us if you know which legislation applies to you before you make an enquiry. If you don’t know, you can find out by asking Titles Queensland.
We want to get the right information into the right hands at the right time by providing a range of information across all sorts of areas, such as by-law enforcement and maintenance responsibilities in bodies corporate.
Depending on what legislation applies to you, we can provide conciliation, adjudication or an order of a referee to resolve your dispute. It’s a valuable role to help you find common ground with your neighbours.
But it’s important to note we cannot provide legal advice, or do things like review documents or advocate for one party over another.
We also cannot provide information or advice on other matters such as building codes or property industry regulations. Other bodies look after these areas.
Before you contact us, please check our website and see if your enquiry is one that falls under our responsibilities. There’s a lot we can help you with and we want to help you navigate the world of bodies corporate.
Search BCCM services to see how we can help you.
Our Information and Community Education Unit
We provide information to the community about body corporate legislation.
You should read the practice directions issued by the Commissioner before starting BCCM Act dispute resolution, because they explain different aspects of the process. You should read the referee guides before applying for an order of a referee.
The BUGT Act has specific forms for notifying Titles Queensland of changes. You can contact Titles Queensland about other forms and fees they also require.
