Zero or less us all they deserve.
They phone and hang up because they are too cheap to phone a mobile number! We have needed urgent repairs for a month. They couldn't give a rat's. And they are outright liars as well.

Poor service and performance. Worst experience
My unit had a water leakage from the bathroom due to a sealing issue. I called the strata on more than one occasion to fix the problem. In the span of 3 months, they called 3 different plumbers to provide a quote. I had to follow up after the first one because it was taking too long to wait. After the final plumber provided a quote i didn't hear anything from VJ Ray and I called to follow up as water was leaking on my bedroom wall now. This was a 3 weeks later from the final quote. The strata manager said that the bathroom was renovated (from t...Read more
he previous owner) and is in the process of changing strata so they are not able to help at all. Asked her how much it would roughly cost and she told me to get my own quote from my own plumber. I had to tell her that she wasted my time and got 3 quotes so she must know how much it would roughly cost. Wasted my time when I could've got the problem fixed ASAP. Poor customer service from VJ Ray.

Poor alround performance and lack of knowledge for 13 Lot stratum
VJ Ray called an EGM under s81 of the SSMrgAct 2015 without consulting with the strata committee (SC), by email, or telephone. The EGM was held on the 08 Sep 2018 and VJ Ray criticised the SC, which is okay, but they must accept the following criticism themselves. They called the EGM to raise special levies for the Administration Fund, but failed to provide financial information (I say this knowing that the Act does not necessarily require such documents for a GM). They called the EGM under s81 of the Act without referring to other sections tha...Read more
t could/would have provided owners with a number of options. In 2017 J Ray paid $2,605.00 from the Administration Fund where the repairs should have been paid out of the Capital Works Plan (CWP). VJ Ray refused to pay a plumber’s invoice for $1496.00 when money was available under the CWP. This repair was subject to an insurance claim, which probably has not been processed as yet. Not paying a tradesperson when money is available is a disgrace. VJ Ray owes the OC $1375.00 but as of the 08 September they had not reimbursed the OC. VJ Ray’s documentation that I have witnessed has been a disgrace, incorrect and missing information. I provided a Statutory Declaration months ago indicating two people, one of them me had been elected onto the SC. VJ Ray failed to record this in the minutes of the May 2018 AGM and VJ Ray stood by their managing agent and the VJ Ray minutes. This in my view is ignoring a legal document, which, indicates they are calling me a liar. I left the EGM on Saturday not long after it commenced as if I had stayed I would definitely have made holding the EGM impossible. I have no issues with decisions made by anyone providing processes are fair.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Insurance paid without 3 quotes
V J Ray paid our strata insurance without given 3 quotes. We have written to V J Ray, 1 month passed, no answer.
Stay away from V J Ray. This is the worst strata managing agent. I do not know how they have the license.

Non responsive to repair complain

As a renter
My perspective as a person who rented through them it was fantastic. We rented a property through the campsie office our experience was totally different.
The only thing that was hard was securing an appropriate time to sign the lease as my husband was working. Other than that we had no issues with them at all. Obtaining the rental ledger was no problem at all when we eventually moved out of the area.

If only you could rate 0 stars
VJ Ray gave our strata plan advice which failed to meet expectation and then advised our strata plan that they were liable for the charge incurred by their dodgy advice. They employed a strata manager who was not communicative and was subsequently let go without even noting to the executive committee or the owners of what was happening. Unprofessional, unethical, incompetent and untrustworthy is putting it mildly.

How can you compare garbage?
Someone stated that VJ Ray comply with the Act minimally. I have evidence they do not comply with the act at all. Section 76 states that strata fees are discussed at AGMs and the committee endorses any increase. This was not in the case with my strata, VJ Ray Campsie. In 2011 no one attended the AGM, however, fees were increased in the next quarter. Without committee consent! I will be reporting them to the ACCC as this is a clear breach of the act. If anyone else has their strata with VJ Ray I suggest going over your reports with a fine tooth comb and consider a class action suit.

The worst strata manager one could hope for
Unprofessional, unethical, incompetent and untrustworthy. The only thing which they are interested in and work tirelessly towards is big expenditures, regardless of the need for such, and never mind the size of the special levy as they don't have to pay for it themselves. The strata manager (a female) looking after our block is HORRIBLE, a pushover who can be succinctly described by the first 4 words of this review. Stay away from VJ Ray, or be prepared for very unpleasant surprises. The previous strata manager (also a female) was no good either. However, with the benefit of hind sight, she was pretty benign compared with the current one.

Stay away from VJ Ray !
VJ Ray Auburn have very unprofessional staff. Their pathetic performance includes poor communication ( they do not keep you updated about any problems or how a resolution maybe progressing ), use of dodgy trades people to fix building problems, shabbily dressed young male staff ( who look like they have just returned from a night club ) and a resistance to follow ethics.
They will offer you lots of promises with little outcome and anything that takes a bit of effort ( e.g. quotes ) just will not get done properly .
I would not recommend this bunch at all !

VJ Ray worst strata management EVER
You are the worst strata management company in this country! Money hungry, blood sucking thieves who do nothing for owners. Where is all our money going???? I live in a unit block that's over 40 years and you guys keep raising the fees and for what??!!! Your constant excuses of "administration fees" grinds my gears.
Your team is the worst bunch of people I've ever dealt with. You are as bad as the worst leaders of this world. Greedy, dishonest and disgusting!!!!

Pathetic Service from a pathetic company
VJ Rays are terrible as previous reviews convey. [name removed] is especially rude and lazy but really all the Strata Managers do as little as possible. They side with their tradespeople because they get a commission from them. I have never known a company to charge so much but yet do so little and owners are a inconvenience to them rather than viewed as a customer. Best to steer clear from this company because even management are lazy and unresponsive. John

Poor service
Very poor service and very rude. Don't even deserve a star rating. We called them up (Campsie office) and they said they will call us back but never did. After calling a couple of times, they just asked us to contact their repairer directly. They are very rude and impatient. They are not doing what they should as a strata manager. Very disappointed.

unresponsive, unthruthful
V.J. Ray. appointed an electrician to upgrade building power board, which burnt bathroom light and microwave oven, when I contacted Vj Ray they seem to side with the electrician, told me that I would have to pay for my bathroom light and microwave to be fixed from my own insurance, for the damage that was caused by the incompetent electrician who has since disappeared allegedly how they were incorrect according to Section 65 .6 of the Strata Schemes Management Act 1996 No 138 clearly states An owners corporation is liable for any damage to a lo...Read more
t or any of its contents caused by or arising out of the carrying out of any work, or the exercise of a power of entry, referred to in this section unless the damage arose because the owners corporation was obstructed or hindered, so my appliances should be replaced by the owners corporation. they then hired another electrician which reversed the damage at an extra cost to BC, which I think the original electrician should be liable for, but still to date no contact after sending numerous emails and messages to V.J.

VJ Ray terrible unresponsive service
These people are terrible managers. They are only interested in doing as little as possible to comply with the minimum standards of the act. They just want you to shut and pay their fees and leave them alone, instead of caring about the quality of life for the owners. They are obstructionist, and use the rules against owners to stop you achieving anything, and they are rude! Almost any other manager would do a better job.
