In order to improve the services we provide you, Tower Body Corporate has created a Client Satisfaction Survey. It would be a great help if you could please spend a few minutes completing the short survey. We thank you for your assistance.
This complimentary newsletter forms part of the comprehensive service provided to you - by keeping you informed and up to date with important news, including any changes that are happening in the Strata Industry. It contains news and articles relating to apartment living in the South East Queensland region.
