Owning a unit in a condominium corporation is a unique experience that offers numerous benefits, which may include various shared amenities, security or concierge services, and investment advantages.

Condominium living also includes various rules and regulations to ensure that residents can enjoy their units peacefully and to achieve various shared community goals. The Condominium Act (the “Act) also provides regulations that regard owning and residing in a condominium unit, and how condominium corporations shall enforce their governing documents and the Act.
