BC stratas: Form B, depreciation reports, and disclosure
Strata corporations must provide a Form B (Information Certificate) on request, plus minutes, financial statements, and the depreciation report if one exists. Depreciation reports are mandatory for stratas with 5+ lots in most regions. We apply the right benchmarks for BC so you know what is compliant and what is missing.
The keys in the fine print
Strata packages arrive as hundreds of pages—Form B, depreciation report, minutes, bylaws. Your lawyer checks liens and litigation—not reserves, special levies, or deferred maintenance. Buyers get five‑figure bills months after closing because the danger was buried in there. We find it first.

What's in the strata package
We Read every page. Extract the numbers. Score the council.

You deserve to know who you're buying into—before you move in.
Strata councils are volunteers with no formal training. Selective enforcement, repeated disputes, and litigation show up in minutes—but buyers rarely read two years of AGM and council minutes. We extract governance patterns, score the council, and flag community conflict before you sign.
Repeated disputes
Same complaints in minutes again and again—noise, pets, parking. Signals the council cannot or will not resolve issues.
Council dysfunction
Tabled items, deferred decisions, inconsistent bylaw enforcement. Volunteer councils with no training often struggle.
Litigation & CRT
Civil Resolution Tribunal claims and lawsuits indicate governance breakdown. We flag what is in the documents.
Community conflict
Hostile AGMs, low participation, member-vs-member disputes. Quality of life matters as much as the numbers.
We surface governance and conflict before you close.
One more thing
We believe you're not just buying a unit. You're buying into a community—the council, the culture, the people next door. You deserve to know that story before you sign. So you know.

Strata insurance deductibles surge
Deductibles that were $10–25K are now commonly $100–250K. When a loss originates in a lot, bylaws often let the council charge the full deductible to that owner. A water leak can mean a six-figure chargeback.

Depreciation reports now mandatory for strata with 5+ lots
Annual deferral votes eliminated. All eligible strata must obtain a depreciation report every 5 years. Metro Vancouver, Capital Regional District, and Fraser Valley stratas without a recent report have until July 1, 2026.
