The tribunal upheld all penalties as legitimate, confirmed the payment agreement was enforceable, and rejected claims for negligence, defamation, and lost rental income.

The Mark has been before the BC Civil Resolution Tribunal 1 times (2018–2018), surfacing 3 distinct issues across 3 categories. The dominant theme is financial disputes & fees, and the highest-severity issue on record is rated elevated. Owners prevailed in 0 of 1 decisions; total awards on record: $0.
Each category below explains what that pattern means for a buyer, with the building’s own decisions as evidence.
Financial disputes & fees
Special assessments and fee disputes hit owners directly — a single levy can run tens of thousands per unit. A pattern here means the building’s finances have been contested. Ask for the reserve-fund study and the levy history before you offer.
Governance & council conduct
How the corporation is actually run — records access, meetings, bylaw enforcement, transparency. Repeated governance cases signal a contentious or opaque council, and that colours every decision made about your money and your building.
Common property & use
Boundaries, parking, and renovation disputes — who controls and can alter shared space. Usually lower-stakes individually, but frequent cases show ongoing friction between owners and the board.
