Hi Robert

As your complex has five units you are required to have a management committee by law.

Premises consisting of two to four units may constitute a building under joint ownership and be registered as such, if the owners of at least fifty per cent (50%) of the joint ownership or any two owners of units submit an application to that effect to the Director requesting that these premises constitute a building under joint ownership and be registered as such.

Regards,

Nigel, these are 5 houses there is nothing jointly owned as such. How does the law still apply here??? Unless of course there is a communal pool, private road and gardens!!!

Hi Bob - yes you do need a Management Committee.

(Incidentally the minimum number of persons on a Management Committee is one).
