In most cases, only the strata plan number is required and proposals are typically issued within 48 hours.

Burnaby Strata Depreciation Reports

Burnaby includes high-density strata communities around major town centres as well as low-rise apartment, townhouse and mixed-use properties.

A depreciation report should separate major common systems from repeated building components so council can see which projects create the largest future funding demands.

Common components considered for long-term planning

Depending on the property, long-term planning may involve parkades, podium areas, elevators, roofing, balconies, windows, building services, landscaping and site infrastructure.

The exact inventory is based on the strata's common property, common assets, bylaws and available information. Components that are not the strata corporation's responsibility are not automatically included simply because they exist on the site.

What the report provides

a component inventory for depreciation-report planning purposes;
anticipated renewal timing over a 30-year horizon;
estimated replacement costs;
financial modelling to support contingency reserve planning; and
a clear draft review process so council can ask questions before finalization.

Site inspection and scope

Our site review is non-intrusive and visual. We review accessible common property and relevant components for depreciation-report planning purposes. It is not a building-envelope, structural, mechanical, electrical, code, forensic or destructive investigation, and it does not replace specialist assessments where those are warranted.

BC requirements and transition history

Under current BC requirements, strata corporations with five or more lots must obtain depreciation reports on a five-year cycle. British Columbia's 2024 transition framework established July 1, 2026 as the transition deadline for Metro Vancouver. Always confirm the Province's current requirements for the specific strata.

Requesting a proposal

In most cases, Coast to Crest only needs the strata plan number to prepare a proposal. We typically issue proposals within 48 hours. After award, we collect the required building and financial information, schedule the site inspection and prepare the draft report.

Legislation, regulations, policies and guidance may change, and requirements can depend on the circumstances of a particular strata corporation.
