What this building’s record shows

128 W Cordova St has been before the BC Civil Resolution Tribunal 1 times (20192019), surfacing 2 distinct issues across 2 categories. The dominant theme is water, envelope & structural, and the highest-severity issue on record is rated high. Owners prevailed in 1 of 1 decisions; total awards on record: $3,910.

Each category below explains what that pattern means for a buyer, with the building’s own decisions as evidence.

Water, envelope & structural

High severity1 decision

Water ingress, roof, and building-envelope failures are the most expensive problems a condo faces, and they’re what drive large special assessments. Structural cases on record are the strongest reason to commission an engineer’s review of the envelope.

Water Damage · 1

Maintenance & upkeep

Low severity1 decision

Deferred repairs and general upkeep. Minor on their own, but alongside structural cases they reinforce a picture of a building falling behind.

Maintenance Deficiency · 1
