It is anticipated about 2,300 empty condominiums across BC cannot be rented out due to strata rules that prevent property owners from renting out their units.<\/p>\n<p>This legislation change will open up the possibility for some condominium owners to rent out a room in their unit if they were given the opportunity to do so.<\/p>\n<p>However, stratas can still ban the operation of short-term rentals \u2014 such as Airbnb \u2014 in their buildings. Existing provincial legislation permits stratas to enforce fines of up to $1,000 per day for short-term rentals that are not permitted under strata bylaws.<\/p>\n<p>Only strata bylaws limiting residents to age 55 and over are allowed, with any strata age-restriction bylaw restricting ages to under 55 now invalid. Stratas can have bylaws that require one or more persons residing in the unit to have reached an age that is not less than 55 years. The provincial legislation allows any live-in caregiver, including caregivers under the age of 55.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 480px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-1267-1\" width=\"480\" height=\"848\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kanavero.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/WhatsApp-Video-2022-12-07-at-12.55.22-PM.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kanavero.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/WhatsApp-Video-2022-12-07-at-12.55.22-PM.mp4\">https:\/\/www.kanavero.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/WhatsApp-Video-2022-12-07-at-12.55.22-PM.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"article-ad-holder infinite\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the ability to restrict homeowners from renting out their residential units is now in effect.
