Strata Rental Restrictions Are Gone and Age Restrictions Limited to 55+

The BC Government has amended the BC Strata law. Condos and townhomes under strata law can no longer restrict rentals or restrict properties by age. 

Amendments to the Strata Property Act will end all strata rental-restriction bylaws and limit age-restriction bylaws so that the only permitted age restriction is to preserve and promote seniors’ housing through the “55 and over” rule in strata housing. Moving forward, it will not be permissible for strata to have 19-plus age restrictions; however, “seniors only” strata will still be allowed.
