Dear Members,

Welcome to the New Year January edition of the Minta Community monthly newsletter!

As we commence the start of the year, we encourage you to take a moment to explore the latest community news, updates, and important information to keep you connected. This newsletter, along with other updates, is also conveniently accessible via your community app.

We would also like to extend a warm welcome to all new property owners who have recently joined the Minta community.

Wishing You a Happy and Prosperous Lunar New Year!

As we celebrate the Year of the Snake on January 29th, our team at Quantum United Management extends our warmest wishes to all members observing this vibrant festival.

May this Lunar New Year bring you happiness, prosperity, and an abundance of good fortune!

Maintaining front and rear yards!

As part of our community's commitment to safety and well-being, we kindly remind everyone to maintain the front and rear yards regularly.

Proper yard maintenance not only enhances the appearance of your home but also helps prevent potential risks such as fires and snake infestations, particularly in warmer months.

Key Reasons to Maintain Your Yard:

Fire Prevention: Overgrown grass, weeds, and dry leaves can easily catch fire, posing a risk to your property and neighboring homes.
Snake Prevention: Dense vegetation and debris provide ideal hiding spots for snakes, potentially leading to dangerous encounters.
Pest Control: Regular yard upkeep helps prevent the buildup of pests such as rodents, mosquitoes, and insects.
Aesthetic Appeal: A well-maintained yard enhances the beauty of our community and helps maintain property values.

Owners Corporation Fees

1st January 2025 to 30th June 2025

Never Miss a Due Date Again!

Simplify your life—set it and forget with Macquarie’s Direct Debit

Did you know that your OC fees can be deducted automatically on the due date via the direct debit facility that is now available through the Macquarie DEFT platform?

Many lot owners have already taken advantage of this 'set and forget' facility where fees are automatically deducted from your nominated bank account on the scheduled date, ensuring timely payment which gives you the peace of mind to focus on other things, without the hassle of worrying about forgetting to pay by certain due dates.

If this is something that you would like to set up moving forward, please send us an email at minta@quantumunited.com.au and we can arrange to have a unique invitation for your lot to be sent to you via the Macquarie Deft Platform.

Once your Direct Debit has been set up with Macquarie Bank's DEFT Payment System, there will be no more forms to complete, no more cheques to write, no more postage charges to pay and no more standing in queues to make payments.

While members are under no obligation to set up direct debit facility, we encourage you to take this opportunity to simplify your payment arrangements.

If you choose the direct debit facility, you will still continue to receive fee notices via your preferred delivery method, however, the fee amount will automatically be debited from your nominated account on the due date noted on your fee notice.

Frequently Asked Questions from Lot Owners

Will my direct debit amount update if my fee amount changes?

Yes, once registered, the Macquarie DEFT system will be synced with the Owners Corporation lot account. Any changes to your fee amount will automatically update your direct debit amount, ensuring accurate and seamless payments.

What happens to my direct debit if I sell my property?

Your account will no longer be debited once your property sale is processed. The Macquarie DEFT system is directly linked to the Owners Corporation database and will deactivate the direct debit for your lot when ownership details are updated.
