🏠 Understanding New Home Warranties in Strata Corporations 🏗️ • • In BC, the Homeowner Protection Act requires all new builds, including strata properties, to have third-party warranty insurance, commonly known as the “2-5-10 New Home Warranty.” Coverage includes: 15 months: Labour and material defects 2 years: Building cladding and delivery systems (plumbing, HVAC, etc.) 5 years: Building envelope defects 10 years: Structural defects Why It’s Good News When Stratas Address Warranty Defects: Addressing warranty deficiencies shows that your strata is proactive about maintaining building quality. It’s far better to tackle these issues while under warranty than to face hefty repair costs later, which might fall on the owners if ignored. Start with the Warranty Certificates: For buildings constructed within the last 10 years, always check if the warranty is still active. It’s crucial to request, review, and understand all warranty certificates and related documents, especially for buildings 12 years old or newer. The Importance of Warranty Documentation: Lack of warranty information can be a red flag. Detailed warranty documents help understand any issues and the efforts made by the strata to resolve them. This knowledge is essential for clients to make informed decisions about their strata purchases. Understanding the warranty status and proactive measures of your strata can significantly influence buying decisions and ensure you’re safeguarded against future issues. Have any questions?
