from outside British Columbia

British Columbia is the third largest province in Canada, by population. The drivers of the provincial economies include the metropolitan areas of Vancouver, Victoria, Kelowna and Prince George, and a significant natural resource sector, dominated by tourism, forestry and mining.  For further information, see: http://www.bcstats.gov.bc.ca

Local government entails regional districts, municipal districts, cities, towns and villages.  For further information, see: http://www.civicnet.gov.bc.ca

Provincial and municipal laws uniquely regulate real property in British Columbia.  Lands with an agricultural use history, multiple family residential rental properties and transfers of real property are examples of properties that are subject to special regulations.  Provincial regulations require the preparation and submission of site profiles on properties with certain commercial and industrial use histories.  Investigation and consideration of land use controls form an integral part of our appraisal and consulting services
