In celebration of #NationalDogDay, we're thrilled to highlight a fantastic trend: pets living in apartments are becoming the new norm, and we couldn't be happier! We are seeing #bodycorporate communities embrace this change with open arms, creating pet-friendly environments that make it easier for you and your furry friends to feel right at home. As we celebrate this positive trend, it's important to remember fire safety plans for our pets. Ensure you have a plan in place to keep your beloved companions safe in case of emergencies. Here are a few tips: 1. Know Your Exits: Familiarize yourself and your pets with all exit routes. 2. Pet Emergency Kit: Keep a kit with essentials like food, water, and medical supplies. 3. Evacuation Handling: Ensure you have a suitable carrier for your pets that is appropriate for exit routes (you may need to walk down fire stairs). 4. Register Your Pet: Make sure your pet is registered with the building so it's known that you have pets in your apartment. Join us in celebrating this pet-friendly movement and share your fire safety tips for pets in the comments below!

To celebrate National Talk in an Elevator Day, what better time to talk about elevator etiquette? With the rise in high-density apartment buildings, sharing an elevator ride with our neighbors has become a regular part of our daily routine. So, what are some of the unspoken rules for elevator etiquette? 1. Always let passengers exit before you board the elevator. 2. Once you've entered, move towards the back of the elevator to allow others to enter comfortably. 3. Be mindful of personal space and, when possible, face the elevator door. Share the rule you wish more people were aware of in the comments below! Community living tip: Check that your lift replacement costs are listed in your capital works maintenance plan.

I am excited to announce my appointment as Managing Director of Smarter Communities.   We have an outstanding opportunity before us. A new generation of apartment owners is demanding a simple, fast, and digital strata service. To meet these needs, the traditional strata management industry needs to be challenged. Smarter Communities was created 14 years ago to do exactly that: to simplify strata management and improve the lives of people living in strata communities.   I look forward to returning to our roots as a family business with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. By combining the exceptional talent within our company with our continued investment in technology, we will build a company that attracts both customers and talented individuals.   I joined Smarter Communities in 2013, learning the fundamentals of strata management from the ground up. Throughout my tenure, I have supported the Smarter Communities family in various roles, including Chief Finance & Strategy Officer. In 2019, I joined the Board of Directors to focus on driving innovation and sustainability solutions within Smarter Communities and the strata management industry. I have been relentless in seeking and investing in new ideas and technology to challenge and modernize the strata industry.   With a focus on customer service and innovation, we will continue our journey to simplify strata and build smarter communities together.
