Build the homes. We'll set up the living.

You've spent years building homes your buyers will love. Don't let the owners corporation be the part that lets them down. Quarter handles the setup from by-laws to first AGM and hands your owners something they'll actually want to live with: a modern, efficient building run with real people behind them.

From settlement to running smoothly

How Quarter sets up the homes you build.

We've mapped the critical path from plan registration to first AGM. Here's what we handle at each stage — so your owners move in to a building that's already running properly.

1

Pre-settlement — By-laws & structure

Quarter helps you draft by-laws that work for the way people actually live — not just the minimum required. We configure the platform for your building type, lot mix and common areas.

8–12 weeks before settlement

Settlement — Owner onboarding

Every buyer is onboarded automatically as they settle. From day one they have their owner portal, building documents and levy schedule in their pocket — so their first impression of home is one of clarity, not paperwork.

Before handover — Quarter manages operations

Once the plan is registered and while you still control the scheme, Quarter handles all operational management — maintenance, levies, insurance, compliance — with full transparency to every owner.

First AGM — Committee elected

Quarter prepares and runs the first AGM. Compliant notice, compliant agenda, voting, minutes published same day. The elected committee takes over — with Quarter behind them as a service, not a manager in front of them.

Ongoing — A home your owners run themselves

Your owners run their own building from day one. No hidden fees. No incentive to make things complicated. Just a well-run home that reflects the quality of what you built.

What Quarter can't do, and a few things it can.

We can't stop Dennis in number 10 snoring,

but we can help the committee organise soundproofing.

We can't walk Toby in number 3's mini-schnauzer,

but we can get pets approved by the neighbours.

We can't predict where sinkholes,

but we can make sure there's money in your sinking fund.

We can't stop Suzie in number 6 from wearing only pink,

but we can give everyone a say in which color to paint the building.

We can't stop it raining all week in Melbourne,

but we can make sure your insurance covers the gutters.

We can't exorcise ghosts,

but we can get an electrician to fix flickering lights in the hallway.
