Hey folks,

My wife and I bought an apartment last year, we're assessing a few options for contents insurance, and most are enquiring about the material used to build the external walls or the roof (we are second floor with one floor above us).

I was unable to find this in the contract (in amongst all the subdivision plans and floor plans of lift shafts etc) nor the building report we had done before settlement.

Apparently I can lodge a "document search" request with the local council for them to check the records offsite (the building was completed in 2010 so I assume the records aren't readily available) but this could be a few hundred dollars.

Are there any public sources of this sort of information I don't know about?

Thanks!
