Hi! I’m the clueless secretary of a pretty clueless EC in NSW.
A new strata management contract requires witnessed “affixing of the common seal”, which I understand is a ye olde rubber stamp, currently in possession of the previous manager. We are out of contract now (contract says it ends on a date last month unless extended by request) but the current manager hasn’t followed up (which gives you some idea of how good a manager he is).
Is there no way to do this digitally and legally? I can create a stamp in Adobe Acrobat that has the required plan# and words. Would that be any less legal to apply?
Is the actual rubber stamp “the one true stamp, blessed by a vicar and singularly ordained to represent the OC”?
Cheers.

No you can’t apply the seal digitally, it has to be the common seal of the strata scheme which the current manager has.
Just tell the current manager to give it to you, you’re the secretary. Then affix it to the agreement and hand it to the new manager. And make sure the current manager hands over all the files.
I assume you have passed the appropriate resolution to appoint the new manager?
