Maria Mak Burnaby Real Estate - Strata disputes, small claim go to new online tribunal


Resolving strata disputes will be faster, more accessible and more affordable thanks to new amendments to the Civil Resolution Tribunal Amendment Act, introduced March 9, 2015.

The amendments, if passed, require parties to resolve their minor strata and small claims disputes using the Civil Resolution Tribunal (CRT), Canada’s first-ever online tribunal available online 24/7.

The CRT is now voluntary but is expected to become mandatory in 2016.

Strata corporations, strata owners and tenants will be able to access tribunal services to help solve disputes including:

 • non-payment of monthly strata fees or fines
 • unfair actions by the strata corporation or by those owning more than half of the strata lots in a complex
 • uneven, arbitrary or non-enforcement of strata bylaws (such as smoking, noise, pets, parking, rentals)
 • issues of financial responsibility for repairs and the choice of bids for services
 • irregularities in the conduct of meetings, voting, minutes or other matters
 • interpretation of the legislation, regulations or bylaws
 • issues regarding common property

The tribunal will also solve small claims disputes of less than $10,000.

Three stages to solve disputes

1.Submit an application describing the claim. The other party can respond. Free service.
2.A mediator seeks a mutually agreed settlement. Fee not yet established.
3.Send the dispute to the tribunal for arbitration. Fee not yet established.

Parties will retain the right to request that a court hear the matter.

Here are 9 Things to Know about the Civil Resolution Tribunal Actchanges.
