The owner sought $1,900 from the strata corporation for water leak damage and sewage backup repairs, along with expenses related to alleged inadequate complaint responses and missing backflow prevention equipment. The tribunal rejected all claims, determining the owner bore responsibility for most repair costs, one damage claim exceeded limitation periods, and the strata corporation had properly addressed the owner's concerns.

33 N Templeton Dr has been before the BC Civil Resolution Tribunal 1 times (2019–2019), surfacing 4 distinct issues across 4 categories. The dominant theme is water, envelope & structural, and the highest-severity issue on record is rated high. 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.
Water, envelope & structural
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.
Building systems & safety
Electrical, HVAC, elevators, and fire safety. Disputes here point to aging or contested infrastructure — confirm the status of major systems and whether any fire-safety orders are outstanding.
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.
Maintenance & upkeep
Deferred repairs and general upkeep. Minor on their own, but alongside structural cases they reinforce a picture of a building falling behind.
