What We Look For in Burnaby Homes
Burnaby is split by the Trans-Canada Highway into distinct quadrants, and the housing mix shifts dramatically between them — established detached neighbourhoods, dense high-rise corridors near SkyTrain stations, and older walk-up condo buildings. Our inspections reflect what's actually common in each part of the city.
Established Housing StockCapitol Hill & South Slope
Capitol Hill, South Slope, and Burnaby Heights feature many homes built decades ago. We check carefully for outdated electrical, aging plumbing materials, and signs of past renovations that weren't permitted or completed to code.
High-Rise StrataBrentwood & Metrotown Condos
Brentwood and Metrotown are dense, transit-oriented hubs with significant high-rise condo development. For strata units, we review accessible common areas like roofs, parking levels, and mechanical rooms alongside the unit itself.
Transit-Oriented GrowthLougheed & Edmonds
Lougheed and Edmonds have a mix of older buildings and new construction as the city continues transit-oriented development. We check workmanship on newer builds and aging systems in older buildings alike.
Secondary SuitesBasement & Suite Conditions
Secondary suites are common in Burnaby's detached home neighbourhoods. We assess fire separation, egress windows, electrical panel capacity, and moisture conditions in below-grade living spaces.
