AI-Powered Strata Document Review by City

Vancouver is the largest strata market in British Columbia, with strata corporations ranging from sub-1980s walk-ups in Mount Pleasant and Kitsilano to brand-new concrete towers in the West End, Yaletown, and Olympic Village. The mix matters: a 2024 high-rise and a 1985 wood-frame building behave nothing alike on paper, even when their MLS listings sit next to each other.

Burnaby's strata market has changed faster than almost any other in Metro Vancouver. The Brentwood, Metrotown, and Lougheed town centres have absorbed dozens of new concrete towers in the last decade, sitting next to mid-rise wood-frames and townhouse complexes built in the 1980s and 1990s.

Surrey is the fastest-growing strata market in BC. The City Centre/Whalley corridor is filling with new mid-rises and towers, while South Surrey, Cloverdale, and Fleetwood are dominated by townhouse complexes — many of them built in the post-rainscreen era.

Richmond's strata market is concrete-heavy and mid-rise dominant, centred on City Centre and Brighouse with townhouse pockets in Steveston, Hamilton, and the eastern parts of the city. Document review in Richmond brings two recurring considerations that other Lower Mainland cities don't share at the same scale: aviation/airport proximity issues affecting some buildings, and high water table conditions that put long-term pressure on parkade waterproofing and drainage.

Victoria's strata market skews older and lower-rise than the Lower Mainland. A significant share of inventory was built before 2000, which means depreciation reports and building envelope history are the most important documents in almost every package.

Coquitlam's strata market has been reshaped by the Evergreen Extension SkyTrain. Burquitlam, Coquitlam Centre, and Lincoln have absorbed a wave of new concrete high-rises in the last decade, while the rest of the city — Maillardville, Westwood Plateau, the Como Lake area — is dominated by townhouses and mid-rise wood-frame buildings from the 1980s and 1990s.

New Westminster has some of Metro Vancouver's oldest strata stock — concrete high-rises in Downtown and along the Quay date to the 1970s, alongside newer towers in Brewery District and Sapperton. For buyers, that mix means document review skews heavily toward depreciation report quality, envelope and parkade history, and how owners have funded the long cycle of capital projects an older building inevitably needs.
