Virtual Conference Brings B.C. Tech Solutions to Strata Owners

The B.C. Strata Tech conference is a one-of-a-kind virtual event that brings together industry experts and showcases some of the leading-edge tech that’s been developed right here in BC to help strata council members, managers, and real estate professionals. Now in its second year, this free online event features presentations and demonstrations from May 14-15.

Volunteer council members have busy lives and little or no experience with management and governance of strata corporations such as condominium and townhouse complexes. There are numerous legal processes and responsibilities they must comply with under the Strata Property Act and about 80% of the 34,000 strata corporations in BC do not have professional strata managers.

Wendy Wall president of the Vancouver Island Strata Owners Association (VISOA) adds, “I applaud the tech industry in BC for developing much-needed software and online tools for this sector. An estimated 1.5 million people live in strata housing in BC and that number is growing. Tools and platforms really help people manage their strata corporations efficiently.”

Presentations include how web-based services can build better communities by StrataCommons, how electronic voting can improve general meeting procedures by Property Flute, using StrataPress to simplify day-to-day operations, and getting the best rates for GICs using YieldExchange. Additionally, the event features guest speakers from Nied Law, the BC Real Estate Association, the Civil Resolution Tribunal, VISOA, and the Condominium Home Owners Association (CHOA).

“We were blown away by the positive response to the first B.C. Strata Tech Conference” shares Ryan Grant, Founder of B.C. Strata Tech. “It solidified the need for a platform connecting industry leaders and fostering innovation in strata living.”

What are people saying about the arrival of the B.C. Strata Tech conference?

“B.C. Strata Tech presents a refreshingly inclusive event for strata owners and residents to freely receive information about the strata property system. Often this segment of the strata community is overlooked, while needing clear coherent information on what owning and living within the strata property system may entail as it is generally not provided to them. Ownership comes with rights, responsibilities and vicarious liabilities making the exchange of knowledge paramount for those within this system.” - A member from one of B.C.’s largest community driven strata support META(Facebook) groups Strata Council: Theft, Bullying & Unauthorized Decisions

“Our strata engaged the services of Property Flute at our AGM this past January. Thanks to the professional and patient guidance of Ryan Grant, one of the founders of Property Flute, our AGM was very successful. This unique platform was exactly what we needed to make our voting procedure seamless and confidential as well as eliminating any controversy. Some owners even said they enjoyed the experience. How often does that happen at an AGM!! As the president of a self managed strata in Victoria, I am very excited about the upcoming B.C. Strata Tech conference. I am looking forward to learning about other products and services that will further help us streamline our strata operations and prepare our strata for the future.” - Carol Heerspink
