Home Buyer Rescission Period began January 3, 2023


The new Home Buyer Rescission Period (“HBRP”) is now in force for residential real estate transactions in the province.

 The B.C. government introduced the HBRP, also known as the “cooling-off period,” as a consumer protection measure to give home buyers time to consider whether a purchase is right for them. HBRP gives buyers the right to rescind their offer up to three business days after the offer is accepted. If a buyer changes their mind, they must pay a 0.25% rescission fee to the seller.

Often contracts of purchase and sale contain subject clauses that provide buyers and sellers with an opportunity to perform their due diligence. The right of rescission is separate from any subject…

It's Property Tax Notice Time


So you've received a Notice from the BC Assessment Office giving you a value of your property as at July 1, 2022.  It's a long document that can be confusing and keep in mind:

  • Your property's assessed value can have gone up, down or stayed the same

  • the assessed value is at July 1, 2022

  • this value will determine how much your property taxes will be when you get your bill JULY 1, 2023.

  • if you disagree with this value you have until January 31 to dispute the Notice.  More details are on the notice on how to do this.

What does the Property Assessment Review Panel Do?


In January, the BC Assessment Authority sends all BC property owners a Property Assessment Notice which informs the owner of the fair market value of their property as of the valuation date of July 1, 2022. In addition, the Notice indicates the classification and any entitlements to exemptions from taxation that may apply for that property. This assessment information is used by the Province and local Governments to calculate that year's property taxes.

After receiving a Property Assessment Notice, property owners are encouraged to review the Notice and discuss any concerns regarding the assessment with BC Assessment. If the concerns or issues raised cannot be resolved, a formal…

CANADIAN & BRITISH COLUMBIAN GOVERNMENT LEGISLATIVE CHANGES COMING JANUARY 2023

Foreign Buyer Ban

Beginning January 1, 2023, non-Canadians will be banned from buying residential property across Canada for two years. Although the federal government has still not released supporting regulations at this point, the Canadian Real Estate Association and BCREA will notify REALTORS® as soon as any guidance is released.  There are some exceptions (and Whistler may be one of them), full details won't be available to us until January 1st (frustrating I know!)
