Building intelligence for BC strata

Building intelligence
for property decisions.

One record for every strata building in British Columbia — what it’s built of, what’s around it, and what it has decided. Because the levy that lands on your unit comes from the roof, not the kitchen.

Every strata corporation in BC. Try a street address, a plan number like EPS8443, or a school.

  • Reserve fund at 61% of the depreciation report's recommendation
  • Water ingress noted in the 2023 minutes, unresolved

Example record — not a real building.

Building intelligence, in three parts

The building, the neighbourhood around it, and its own documents. The building is free and needs no account — its facts were already public.

1 · Free, no account

The building

What you’re buying into

Built of, year, storeys, homes, who manages it, what's been remediated. Assembled from land title, the assessment roll and strata filings. No account.

The neighbourhood

What you can’t change

Nine areas past the lot line, measured from public BC data — transit, schools, hazard, crime, what's approved next door. Never in the building's own paperwork.

What you’re inheriting

The levies, the reserve fund, the litigation, the engineer's schedule — read out of this corporation's own package, each finding pointing at its page.

1 · The building — free, no account

Every building already has a record

No upload, no account. Here is one BC strata corporation, read from the register as this page loaded — including the field we don't have.

Everything above is the public record, held for every strata corporation in the province. The levies, the reserve fund balance, the litigation and the engineer's schedule live in the building's own documents — reading those is what makes a record like this one worth acting on.

2 · The neighbourhoodBeta

The record doesn’t stop at the property line.

The record says what the building is built of. Its own documents, further down, say what it has decided and deferred. Neither says a rapid transit station is opening four blocks away, or that the block sits in a mapped floodplain. Location Insights measures nine areas around the building from public BC data, the same way the rest of the record is measured.

Nine areas, scored

Transit, schools, hazard, amenities, crime, infrastructure, development, demographics, change.

The records, not just the score

Which schools, how far. Which station, how frequent. Which projects nearby, and when they finish.

Gaps named, never guessed

An area with no measurement says so. A dataset that does not reach the municipality is reported missing, never zero.

How Location Insights works

In beta for BC strata corporations, where coverage is still expanding. Scores measure a building’s surroundings — not its finances — and are reference only.

3 · The documents — a credit, or Pro

Then go deep on one building

Public records can say what a building is and where it stands. Only this corporation’s own package says what it has decided, deferred and spent — and every finding points at the page it came from.

What people actually ask

Real questions, and which part of the record answers each one.

1 · The building

  • How old is this building, and what is it built of?
  • How many homes does it hold, and who manages it?
  • Has the envelope ever been remediated?

Free, no account

2 · The neighbourhood

  • What is approved on the block next door?
  • How far is the nearest elementary school?
  • Does this parcel sit in a mapped floodplain?

Pro

3 · The documents

  • Is there a levy coming on this building?
  • Has the reserve fund recovered?
  • What will a levy cost the owner of this unit?

Every answer points at the record or the page it came from. Look a building up

The building is always free

The record is how most people meet us, and it stays open — not as a trial of something else, but because a building’s own facts were already public. Paying widens it past the lot line and deepens it into the package.
