Why StrataReady

Every Answer Includes a Source Citation

Every explanation links back to the relevant legislation and regulatory sources. Instead of simply showing the correct answer, StrataReady shows where the answer comes from and why it is correct.

Students can verify answers against:

  • Strata Property Act and Regulation
  • Real Estate Services Act (RESA)
  • Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA)
  • BC Financial Services Authority regulatory guidance
QUESTION 47 — RESULTIncorrect

Which of the following best describes the strata corporation's duty to repair and maintain common property under the Strata Property Act?

Your answer (A): The strata corporation may delegate all repair responsibilities to individual owners by bylaw.

Correct answer (C): The strata corporation must repair and maintain common property and common assets.

Option (A) is incorrect because bylaws cannot override the statutory duty to repair — the SPA imposes this obligation directly on the strata corporation. Option (B) confuses repair obligations with insurance obligations. Option (D) incorrectly limits the duty to structural elements only.

Study note

The duty to repair and maintain common property is one of the strata corporation's core non-delegable obligations. Unlike many other strata functions, this duty cannot be shifted to owners by bylaw — it runs with the corporation regardless of what the bylaws say.
