Debt Recovery Message When Changing Owner on a Lot in Strata Master
When applying a Change of Ownership, a message may be received that the Lot is subject to Debt Recovery or there are Debt Recovery Charges on the ledger. The message can prevent processing of the Change of Ownership and needs to be rectified before proceeding.
Note that all amounts owing on the Lot, from the Selling Lot Owner, should be paid in full at settlement. Therefore debts should be cleared.
