Disclaimer

Not legal, real estate, or financial advice

StrataCheck is an automated document analysis tool. It is not a licensed REALTOR®, not a licensed real estate lawyer or notary, not a home inspector, not a professional engineer, not a chartered accountant, and not a licensed strata manager. Nothing in a StrataCheck report constitutes legal advice, real estate advice, financial advice, tax advice, engineering advice, or a professional opinion of any kind.

A StrataCheck report is a second opinion — a structured read of the documents you uploaded, produced to help you ask better questions. It is not a substitute for professional review.

The report may be wrong

Strata document packages are long, inconsistent, and often handwritten or scanned. Automated analysis can and does make mistakes. A StrataCheck report may:

• Miss a material issue that is present in the documents.
• Flag something as a risk that is, in context, not a risk.
• Misread numbers (fees, reserve balances, deductibles, special levies).
• Misinterpret bylaws, rules, or SPA references.
• Be based on stale documents the seller provided.
• Be incomplete because the package itself was incomplete.

You should treat every finding as a starting point for verification, not as a conclusion.

Do not remove subjects based on this report alone

Removing subjects (also called "lifting conditions") on a BC real estate offer is an irrevocable commitment that can cost you tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars if it turns out to be a mistake. Do not remove subjects, waive conditions, or complete a purchase based on a StrataCheck report alone. Before you act, you must:

• Have a licensed BC real estate lawyer or notary review the strata documents.
• Discuss the findings with your REALTOR®.
• If the report flags building envelope, plumbing, or structural concerns, get a qualified inspector or engineer to review.
• Verify insurance deductibles directly with the strata corporation's insurance broker if they are material to your decision.

BC-specific context

StrataCheck is tuned for British Columbia strata corporations governed by the BC Strata Property Act. It is not suitable for condominium or HOA documents from other provinces, US states, or other jurisdictions. References to laws (SPA, Bill 44, the STR Act, CRT thresholds) reflect our understanding as of the report date and may be out of date by the time you read it.

No liability for your decisions

You are solely responsible for any real estate decision you make. StrataCheck, its operators, and its sub-processors are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, a StrataCheck report — including loss resulting from removing subjects, waiving conditions, paying more than market value, assuming deferred maintenance costs, or failing to discover material defects. See our Terms of Service for the full limitation of liability.
