New eviction rules coming July 18, 2024

  • BC landlords must use the Landlord Use Web Portal to create personal or caretaker use eviction notices starting July 18, 2024 and must include information on who is moving in.

  • Other changes to the personal or caretaker use eviction rules include a four-month notice period, 30-day dispute window, mandatory 12-month occupancy, and higher penalties for bad-faith evictions.

  • The portal aims to protect tenants from false evictions and provide a transparent process, with data used for better regulation and support for renters and landlords.
