Rossland Condos Under $400K.

Lower-priced condos are often older buildings or smaller units, so the building matters as much as the suite.

Read the strata documents before you commit: the bylaws (rentals, pets, age restrictions), the depreciation report, the contingency reserve fund, the last two years of minutes and any upcoming special levies. Ask what the strata fee covers and about the building envelope's history, especially for buildings from the late 1980s and 1990s. First-time buyers should also check whether they qualify for BC's first-time home buyers' property transfer tax exemption.
