What this building’s record shows

Addition has been before the BC Civil Resolution Tribunal 1 times (20232023), surfacing 3 distinct issues across 3 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

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

Building systems & safety

Elevated severity1 decision

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.

Plumbing Systems · 1

Common property & use

Elevated severity1 decision

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.
