What Actually Happens After You Reach Konsensus?
Learn the structured process that follows once your building reaches 75% agreement for a collective sale, from proposal documentation to final settlement.

Congratulations — your building has reached 75% agreement to sell!
That's a major milestone — but it's just the beginning of a clear, structured process designed to turn opportunity into action.
If you're wondering what happens next, here's a simple, step-by-step guide to how Konsensus supports you all the way through — with full transparency, legal protection, and owner-first advocacy at every stage.
Step 1: Proposal Documentation and Independent Valuation
Once 75% support (by unit entitlement) is secured, Konsensus works with independent experts to prepare a Strata Renewal Proposal. This includes:
- The proposed sale price range
- How the sale proceeds will be distributed
- Settlement timelines
- Terms and conditions for all owners
An independent, certified valuer (not a real estate agent) is engaged to assess the site's current value — and its redevelopment potential. This protects owners by ensuring an unbiased, transparent valuation.
Step 2: Developer Offers and Site Marketing
With a formal valuation in hand, Konsensus facilitates developer interest. Depending on the building and strategy, we may:
- Approach developers directly
- Or partner with a trusted real estate agent to maximise competition among buyers
Important: Even when an agent is involved, Konsensus remains your trusted conduit — vetting offers, negotiating terms, and protecting your interests first. Developer offers typically outline:
- Price per unit
- Settlement timeframe (usually 6–12 months)
- Any conditions (like development approval or finance milestones)
We help you compare offers based on certainty, fairness, and value — not just headline numbers.
Step 3: Approval and Legal Review
Once a preferred offer is selected, Konsensus works with strata lawyers to finalise the formal Strata Renewal Proposal. It must be approved by:
- 75% of lot owners by unit entitlement (already achieved)
- The NSW Land and Environment Court (if not 100% of owners agree)
The Court ensures the sale is:
- Fair and reasonable to all owners
- Based on independent valuations
- Following a transparent and lawful process
This legal step protects all owners — including minority dissenters.
Step 4: Contract Execution
With Court approval (if needed), contracts are signed between:
- Each individual owner (or their legal representative)
- The developer
- The owners' corporation (the strata)
Settlement periods are typically generous — around 6 to 12 months — giving owners time to relocate or plan their next move comfortably. Developers may also offer relocation support packages — Konsensus helps ensure any additional terms are clear and in your favour.
Step 5: Settlement and Payout
When settlement occurs:
- Sale proceeds are distributed based on each owner's unit entitlement (or agreed formula)
- Mortgages are discharged (if applicable)
- The strata plan is terminated
- Ownership transfers to the developer
Most owners walk away with 20–35% more than they would have received from selling individually — and without the need for multiple listings, open inspections, or agent commissions on separate sales.
FAQs About the Post-Konsensus Stage
What happens if I change my mind after 75% agree?
You can still raise objections through the Court review. The deal will only proceed if the Court agrees it's fair and reasonable.
How is my share calculated?
Usually based on unit entitlement — the size and relative value of your lot as registered in the strata plan.
Will I have to move out straight away?
No — settlements typically allow 6–12 months, giving you time to move on your terms.
Will I pay tax on the payout?
Possibly. Capital Gains Tax (CGT) may apply depending on whether it was your principal place of residence or an investment. Always consult a tax professional.
