I guess it all comes down to whether or not they're strata titles though. If it's strata then don't they have to get permission from neighbours before bringing in pets?
Usually yes.

As The Block edges closer and closer to the finale – friendships are being tested more than ever.
And Tuesday night’s episode commenced with each of the Blockheads looking very weary as they woke up - especially Karstan who had been up with the builders until late the night before.
Builder Morris had also been up late and caused the first fight of the day with Keith The Foreman who told him to get off site until midday because of health and safety reasons.
Jealous: Max and Karstan had the other contestants seeing red on Tuesday night's episode of The Block
Simon kicked off with Keith demanding a good reason why Morris couldn’t work over the next hour but Keith refused to rise to the bate, instead telling him:
‘It’s simple health and safety. Because we don’t think he’s fit for a work and it’s as simple as that.
I don’t have to engage in an argument every time Simon, I'm the foreman and that’s it.’
Foreman Keith orders Simon and Shannon's builder off-site
'It's cheating': The blockheads were angered by the couple's extra room which they felt was unfair
Obsessed: Darren had become obsessed with the idea that Max and Karstan were ‘cheating’ and paying for work done out of their own pockets
But Keith soon got his comeuppance later on when Darren started throwing balls at his head!
And if Karstan thought he was having a bad day when he woke up groggy – it was about to get a whole lot worse.
Darren and Dee became obsessed with the idea that Max and Karstan were ‘cheating’ and paying for work done out of their own pockets.
About to get worse: If Karstan thought he was having a bad day when he woke up groggy – it was about to go downhill
Tension: Max was accused of hiding a secret room as pressure on the show continued crank up
They were infuriated by the thought that the couple had also been harbouring a secret room.
In what started to seem like a witch hunt The Blockheads then surrounded Karstan demanding to know why they have four rooms instead of three like everyone else, putting them at an obvious advantage.
‘It’s cheating’ exclaimed Dee, while Darren demanded: ‘We want to know how you’ve paid for it.’
Bedtime: Michael and Carlene spend some time with their son Paddy.
Karstan couldn’t believe what he was hearing and afterwards admitted to finding the whole thing ‘very uncomfortable.’
He told the contestants: ‘I haven't got any money I’ve got a 1,000 bucks to my name.’
He also explained that it was one room which they had converted into two and said it was initially part of the second bedroom.
Family time: There was some kindness shown with Michael and Carlene being told by their builders to go and spend some time with their son Paddy
Their true colours were all starting to be revealed especially with $20,000 up for grabs.
Chris - who has been dubbed 'Evil Chris' stated: ‘When someone fails a little bit you’re like “cool”.’
However, there was some kindness shown with Michael and Carlene being told by their builders to go and spend some time with their son Paddy.
Melbourne escape: The ladies step out for a mini shopping spree as they hunt for wedding rings
In what became ‘Paddy’s Day’ the youngster said he loved meeting Keith and revealed how he liked the ‘boys bathroom the best.’
Someone else obsessed with a secret room was Simon who hid in a wheelie bin and enjoyed being wheeled around.
Other highlights included Max going shopping for engagement rings with Dee – including one which took over her entire finger.

- ‘I can’t wait to come home to her every day,’ Shannon Voss gushed to Woman’s Day magazine about his now wife, Lisa.
The couple couldn’t hold back the tears as they said their vows before 80 friends and family including brother and fellow blockhead, Simon, at Sydney hotspot, the Grounds of Alexandria.
The venue was transformed for the event with candles in jars, fairy lights and flowers.

A hopeless romantic! Shannon told Lisa: 'I love you now and I'll love you tomorrow and every single day after that'
The groom wore a blue suit and the bride wore a tight-fitting backless lace gown by Lover.
Not worried about the tradition of not seeing each other before the wedding, the couple spent the hours before saying ‘I do’ together with Shannon saying: ‘We wanted to get excited together and because we’re both emotional, it gave us some time to wipe our tears – not that it helped, we still cried again!’
They weren’t the only ones crying though with Shannon making the whole room teary when he said to his bride: ‘I love you now and I’ll love you tomorrow and every single day after that,’ also saying: ‘You’re incredibly beautiful – so flippin’ hot – today especially.’
Lisa admits the couple are like chalk and cheese: ‘I’m a realist, he’s a dreamer,’ adding, ‘He’s always optimistic and I’m really factual and real.’
Find out more: The couple's story is featured in the October 6 edition of Woman's Day magazine with George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin on the cover
But Shannon’s mum, Lynn Vos, says: ‘They bring out the best in each other.’
Lisa spoke of how romantic Shannon is: ‘Every week he does something sweet that not a lot of guys would do in a year!’
‘My dad once told me love is not a feeling you feel, you have to put it into action,’ Shannon said.
The couple were friends for a long time before, but only dated for a year and a half before getting engaged.
Shannon saying: ‘I got the news I was going to The Block and I thought, ‘I need to snag this woman before I go off for four months’.’
Simon & Shannon's audition tape for The Block
‘I took her out for dinner at a really nice restaurant and had already booked a hotel room where I’d set up a gypsy tea party in the room,’ he said, adding: ‘I built a tepee, I got a stylist in, flowers, heaps of candles, fairy lights, music and 20 different rugs and carpets scattered everywhere.’
After the couple finished dinner he took her for a walk along the beach, before taking her to the room and as soon as she saw the ring, Lisa was in tears.
Shannon had no idea what to do, but was just happy they were happy tears.

Blockheads! Shannon and his brother Simon competed on The Block Glasshouse together
When asked what his favourite thing about Lisa was he said it was her: ‘ability to capture life,’ and her: ‘bum’.
He revealed: ‘ She’s got the hottest bum I’ve ever seen in my life.’

Don't tell @the Theorist.
Don't worry, I already saw an article about it earlier this week... the reason I haven't posted anything about it here is because I've been too busy CRYING MY EYES OUT.

Those D people are such sooks.
Cowie
Jack lives here
So they show Karsten helping Darren and then they show Darren throwing a tantrum about Keith helping Simon. Those D people are NASTY. I realise it's edited and someone had to the be the heel of the series but they are nasty. You'd almost have to think they're on the verge of bankruptcy they're SO obsessed with winning. I'd do it for the fun, not to win.
