If you want to throw your money away and destroy your property through neglect this is the company for you.
Have a look at all their positive reviews. Most were done within a 2 week period last year.
Everything about this company is wrong.
Our building is in good hands with Binks and Associates.
This company manages a property that I am an owner in the CBD. We have some defects that have been handled with no fuss. Not bad.
I live in St Kilda east and I've worked with Ivy for a couple of years now and she's always been very helpful, responsive and professional. It was my first experience living in an owners corporation and she explained how everything works patiently and professionally. I would definitely recommend Bin...
Worst ever property management company to deal with. Lights in our building foyer and stairway have been out for weeks now! Lets hope there's no fire or crisis in the middle of the night because we have no exit / emergency lighting at all!! And no response to email or calls. On top of that our ...
This firm's philosophy seems to be the reverse of "no problem too small".
Great accounting department. It was really nice dealing with the accountant, never had any issues and she is always responsive to any queries.

Since we changed our property management to Binks a few years ago I have noticed the vast improvement in responsiveness and advice given regarding our property (managed by Todd). The customer service is friendly and efficient and their fiscal manageme...
Our small Body Corporate of nine units has relied on Binks and Associates for the last thirty years. For up to date information on changes to regulations, for conducting well prepared Annual General meetings and for their very clear guidelines on what are our obligations in running a successful Body...
Binks now manage 2 properties in my extended family. The managers I have dealt with have been very helpful and experienced.
Worst OC managers ever. Don't respond to calls or emails, haven't had an agm for over 18 months even though we have been requesting one and make it very hard to transfer management to another company. Terrible service and I can't wait to be free of them!
Binks have managed our apartment complex for the last 25 years, I know I won t be the chairperson for that long but I do hope Binks will continue to look after our unique building. I appreciate having the manager s mobile and being able to talk through my ideas about budgets and refurbishments befor...
I am very happy to recommend Binks & Associates as Strata managers. I am a committee member in our building and I have appreciated the guidance and direction provided by Binks especially for the big maintenance decisions.
Binks & Associates have been our managers for many years. I have always had positive experiences with Julian and Janis before him. We have always been provided good advice and they seem to have a wide network of contractors. They are experienced and pragmatic.
The staff and management team of Binks and Associates are polite, professional and precise in their dealings. Looking for a reliable and dependable Strata Management firm? Look no further.
I have worked closely with the manger at Binks for the past 3 years. He is very diplomatic and I wonder how he manages all the different personalities at our meeting! It can't be an easy job. I am very happy with the service overall and will continue to use Binks.
Ivy has managed my body corporate in North Melbourne for almost three years now and I've always found her to be very responsive, courteous and knowledgeable. Keep up the good work guys!
Ivy is our Body Corporate manager and I have been dealing with her for a number of years. She is always very helpful, efficient and is more than happy to go beyond what would be expected. I would have no hesitation in recommending her.
I never paid much attention to the body corporate at our Hughesdale apartment complex but always thought the fees were strangely high for a building with minimal communal facilities. I spoke with Julian at Binks and Associates after a friend s recommendation and after discussing the financial statem...
Just finished our AGM for a building in excess of 150 units in under an hour. So refreshing to know that the property is receiving prompt attention, excellent service and is well looked after. A very positive change after an "interesting experience".
Im not sure if Julian or Gershwin looks after our property but either way my concerns are addressed quickly and without issues or complications.
I locked myself out of my apartment and they were very helpful in getting a quick work around. So helpful......
I am the chairperson for our owner's corporation and Todd (Binks and Associates) has been the manager of our owners's corporation for the past 7 years . During this time he has provided a very professional service. He is responsive to our needs and always deals with issues in a prompt manner. He ha...
In my time dealing with Binks & Associates I have always received friendly service. I recently had dealings with Ivy who I found was very professional and very easy to deal with, in an industry where service often fails to deliver! Well done Binks team keep doing what your doing
Thank you for Julian for sorting out our urgent problem today so quickly. Genuine life saver!
This company manages a property that I am an owner in the CBD. We have some defects that have been handled with no fuss. Not bad.
Winners.....very pleasant and helpful. I've heard some storied about body corps some good some bad. I only have nice things to say about this body corp.
Binks & Assoc have managed our body corp for over 20 years; I can highly recommend them. During this time we have been though a lot, including a full renovation of the block and many difficult situations during which Binks have proved themselves time and again to be professional, courteous and extre...
Was referred by my accountant to this company (I do some small developments). The process has been very efficient and we received some sound suggestions that helped offset some potential complications that would have eventuated in some problems for the owners and in turn us. Happy with the referral.
Terrible. They have no idea what they are doing. Each time you ask, they attack back with the issue being my problem. I actually received rude e-mails back from there staff. Yet they are suppose to manage the maitenance of the property. The hot water pipes have been squealing for months internal...
As the chairperson of an owners corporation of an 18 apartment building I have been working with Binks and Associates for 5 years now. In that time their guidance and assistance to help the committee and I run, repair and renovate our block has been invaluable. We have made major changes to our owne...
I have been a Owners Corporation committee member for a block of flats in South Yarra (Hawksburn) managed by Bink (and other before) since 1987. I am also the secretary of our committee for about 20 years and I have found Binks efficient and helpful. Property manager do change often but our current ...
Over a number of years our body corp has had quite a few managers. It is difficult work to do no doubt but they get paid for it so really they should do the work and not complain. Until we appointed Binks as our manager I had formed the view that all managers were either of an average standard or wo...
Binks have managed out apartments for a number of years and during that time they regularly change who is managing our property without advising committee. I almost never get my emails replied to. Ivy has no understand of building works and struggles on how to interpret reports and manage upcoming ...
Recently took over as body corp manager for the property I am a tenant in. The difference is quite apparent - I actually received a return call and a quick response to my emails. Thanks to Ivy!
Rude staff & terrible customer service. Their response during a global pandemic where people are experiencing severe hardships was to threaten and charge penalties while further reducing the quality of their already terrible service.
Binks & Associates have been managing our Owners Corporation since 2006. I am chair of our OC Committee, and have been for many years. Initially I was not happy with the manager we had, and I insisted on changing managers. Since Todd Stokes was appointed we have been much happier. Todd is very a...
"The lady at the front desk is very gentle and patient, and the manager is also very good and efficient."
I have had some advise & great help from Ben (Director)
Terrible. Maybe we just have a bad manager at the moment, apparently the previous one was better, I wasn't around for that.
I have to say that it is much better than the previous property management company (not to mention the previous name). binks dealt with problems in a timely manner and had a very good attitude. It was not the polite and indifferent attitude of many ghosts. I hope that our building can continue to us...
Our Committee for 50 units have been fortunate to have Alyssa Ho as our contact. She is experienced, helpful and reliable. Cannot fault her work.
Binks has been the the Property managers of the block of units since i moved in 22 years ago .
Todd Stokes is our manager and has been handling us for 7 - 8 years , he is one of the best we have ever had , very responsive and quick to follow up any queries .
Happy to recommend Binks and Todd
Very helpful - I lost my remote control for the car park and was able to receive a replacement same day. Great service, thank you and congratulations.
We are very new to living in apartment buildings and a little overwhelmed by everything we needed to do to get connected within the building. When we contacted Binks we were helped by the most patient staff member in a very nice way. I didn't catch her name but thanks anyway.
Had a wonderful experience today with the lady on reception. Couldn't do enough to help me. After having such a positive experience I am surprised to see the other reviews on this page. Thank you so much.
Great team to deal with, professional and responsive. If you re looking for a long term partnership, and a safe manager to bet your investment on, your search stops here.
Highly recommended, they re service is always great, quick to respond to all my inquiries. Alyssa is very helpful and goes above and beyond. I m very great full with her and her team.
Thank you, thank you. Very helpful today when needed (especially the reception staff).
Binks & Associates displayed to me a deficiency in competence. They are unable to adress routine matters or resolve them. When tasked with organising matters such as basic maintenance they really struggle to maintain any control.
I have also noticed that they often seek conflict with the real est...
Excellent service by Lee-Anne, Ben and Joe. We have recommended them for other properties. Efficient, reliable and honest service.
We have had the absolutely worst experience with Binks & Associates. Our property manager Graham never responds to calls or emails and barely actions any of our requests. The only thing we get on a regular basis is our quarterly bill and he's had the gall to charge us extra for "additional" work tha...
Its been a pleasure dealing with Elsa in the accounting department at Binks. As external accountants we rely on timely and accurate information to enable filing of lodgements with the ATO prior to deadlines and without any issues.
