We, at Dream Project Solutions (Pty) Ltd understand that the requirements of the amended Sectional Title Schemes Management Act, 2011 (Act 8 of 2011) could possibly now be placing a lot of unnecessary added pressure and responsibility on trustees, or will do so in the near future. Trustees are now obliged to ensure that the Body Corporate complies with additional regulations brought about by the amended Sectional Title Schemes Management Act, 2011 (Act 8 of 2011). Ensuring compliance with these regulations requires extensive knowledge and expertise, which many trustees do not have the time to research and obtain and/or the necessary technical skills and qualifications to ensure compliance is fully achieved.

Appointing Dream Project Solutions (Pty) Ltd provides trustees with the confidence that they are fulfilling their duties and responsibilities towards the Body Corporate by ensuring compliance with the new regulations of the amended Sectional Title Schemes Management Act, 2011 (Act 8 of 2011).

Our mission to assist Body Corporates in ensuring that they are fully compliant with the amended Sectional Title Schemes Management Act, 2011 (Act 8 of 2011), is achieved by developing systems that are simple to understand yet at the same time are customized to cater for the individual needs of each complex/scheme and Body Corporate.
