Had such a great time visiting Whitehorse. Made a trip into Atlin, BC. I can definitely see myself going back. Mostly to these “warm springs”

New to Real Estate in BC as of January 2023

Foreign Buyers Ban

The federal government’s ban on new foreign ownership of residential property becomes law on January 1, 2023, disallowing anyone who isn’t a Canadian citizen or permanent resident from buying residential real estate for two years.
During this period, the federal government plans to work with provinces and municipalities to develop a framework to better regulate the role of foreign buyers in the housing market to ensure housing is available for and used by Canadians.

Who can’t buy residential property?
The act defines a non-Canadian as:
an individual who is neither a Canadian citizen nor a person registered as an Indian under the Indian Act nor a permanent resident;
a corporation that is incorporated otherwise than under the laws of Canada or a province;
a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada or a province whose shares are not listed on a stock exchange in Canada for which a designation under section 262 of the Income Tax Act is in effect and that is controlled by a person referred to in paragraph (a) or (b); and
a prescribed person or entity.

Exceptions
Include:
A temporary resident within the meaning of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act; or
A non-Canadian who buys residential property with a Canadian spouse or common-law partner if the spouse or common-law partner is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, or person registered as an Indian under the Indian Act.

➡️Whistler and Pemberton are EXCLUDED from the Foreign Buyer Ban. Both Whistler and Pemberton fall outside the Prohibition on the Purchase of Residential Property by Non - Canadians Act definition of “Residential Property” - Which states that the prohibition applies to “residential property located in a census metropolitan area or a census agglomeration” so markets in Whistler and Pemberton will stay open to investment despite the ban.

The market has been and is changing. And the Bank of Canada is expected to raise its benchmark interest rate by half a percentage point on Wednesday June 1st, a move designed to rein in inflation, running at its highest level in decades. There's a virtually unanimous view among economists that the bank will move its benchmark lending rate to 1.5 per cent on Wednesday, the second such hike in a row and a crystal clear signal that the pandemic-induced era of cheap money has come to an end.
