St Lukes Garden Apartments owners lose leaky building conspiracy case, face $63…

So two owners tried to blame the body corporate for their own leaky apartment? Mate, you bought a place in a known leaky building, that's on you. $636k levy hurts but maybe don't buy a lemon.

exactly, buyers should do their homework. court isn't for 'i feel like i was tricked' without proof

Ella Thompson2026-07-22T18:51:00.000Z

what a joke. these people probably knew about the leaks but hoped to dump it on someone else. classic

I work in construction and leaky buildings are a blight on this country. Absolute shoddy workmanship from the 90s/2000s. Body corporate sometimes is useless but blaming a conspiracy? nah.

lmaooo they thought they could sue their way out of a leaky apartment. good luck selling now

Poor buggers, must be stressful. But court-appointed admin fees on top of levy? Hell no. Something's wrong with the system when owners get shafted both ways.

Peyton Hall2026-07-22T19:44:00.000Z

$636k levy ffs. Imagine waking up to that bill. Would sell immediately but who would buy?

Sophie Ngata2026-07-22T20:30:00.000Z

yeah but the system should protect homeowners not just builders. feels like everyone's covering their arse

Luca Reid2026-07-22T20:37:00.000Z

agree. those admin fees are outrageous, feels like a racket

River Cole2026-07-22T20:03:00.000Z

conspiracy theories never work in court. should have just fixed the leaks instead of lawyering up lmao

Mason Young2026-07-22T20:27:00.000Z

maybe they can start a gofundme haha. nah but seriously this is messed up

Luca Reid2026-07-22T20:17:00.000Z

Feel for them but also come on. The whole complex is known as a disaster. You don't get to play victim when you ignored every red flag.

Hayden Kelly2026-07-22T21:01:00.000Z

blame the cowboy builders from the 2000s. untreated timber, no cavity, dodgy flashings. fire them into the sun

Jamie Fox2026-07-22T20:33:00.000Z

another day another leaky building payout. who even signs off these buildings? pathetic

Isla Cooper2026-07-22T20:40:00.000Z

nah, some people just don't listen. they think lawsuit equals free money

Mason Young2026-07-22T20:51:00.000Z

Wait, they spent all that money on a conspiracy case and lost? That's just throwing good money after bad. Should have put that towards repairs.

Isla Cooper2026-07-22T21:03:00.000Z

honestly, the whole leaky building saga is a national shame. so many lives ruined. this is just another chapter
