Share your plan in five short steps. A licensed REALTOR® will go over the rules for the place you have in mind.
Step 1 of 5
This decides where you can buy.
Yes. The rules are the same on every app. Since May 2024 the apps must take down listings that are not on the provincial short-term rental registry.
Each home here says so in its own listing, and the exact words are shown. That is the seller's claim, not a check. Ask the strata and the city before you count on it. A licensed REALTOR® can review one with you.
Yes. A licensed REALTOR® reads every request and calls you.
No. In most BC sales the seller pays the commission, so this help costs you nothing.
