What Affects Quotes in Strand
- Access. Parking in high-rise blocks and equipment exposed to sea air.
- Hose reels on every floor and equipment in parking levels take longer to service than a single house.
- Body corporates often save by putting all common-area equipment on one annual contract.
- Loan units. The by-law requires a working unit to be left when one is removed, so check loan units are included.
