I think most people are aware that with cross leases it's not the same as owning a fee simple title. I think the issue is a lot of people when they're told about what the rules are that you need to get consent. But you need to update your title plan. People forget about it. They live their lives. They do things. They get council consent and they forget the rules. Some people like them because they want to be able to control their neighbours more than in a... normal situation and with intensification all sorts of things can happen to the property next door whereas with a cross lease you have more control so there are swings and roundabouts but I guess now there is less control than people thought that they had.
