Unsure who is responsible to pay for repair and maintenance costs within a strata?
Gaining knowledge on Remediation in the Lower Mainland, along with repair responsibilities and cost allocation, is the responsibility of your strata council, and the homeowners need agree on the processes. www2.gov.bc.ca offers insight into these details, mentioning that…
“Who pays for what repairs and maintenance is not always well understood within strata corporations and past practice may not be legally correct.
It is often assumed that strata lot owners are responsible for the repair and maintenance of their strata lot and the strata corporation is responsible for the repair and maintenance of common property and limited common property. However these responsibilities can vary widely and need explicit confirmation.”
