About buying a top-floor home in Vancouver
In Yaletown the Canada Line stops at Yaletown-Roundhouse, and the Yaletown Historic Area (HA-3) limits building height to 21.4 metres. Parts of False Creek North are exposed to flooding as sea level rises, so ask a strata in that area what it has planned.
The Empty Homes Tax charges 3% of assessed value on a home that is neither occupied nor rented.
Before you offer on a Vancouver penthouse
- Ask when the building last replaced its roof, and read the depreciation report for the cost of the next one.
- Ask about water-ingress claims and envelope repairs from the past ten years, and what the strata’s insurance deductible is.
- Confirm whether a roof deck or terrace is part of your strata lot, limited common property or common property, since that decides who may build, repair and use it.
- Visit at different hours. Mechanical rooms and elevator machinery above a top floor can be loud, and afternoon sun heats some suites.
- Compare the building’s fee with the $620 a month median for Vancouver penthouses and $538 for all condos. A fee well above that deserves a look at what it covers. The median Vancouver penthouse sold was built in 2004.
