Vancouver Property History Reports

Vancouver property history reports draw directly from City of Vancouver open data: issued building permits, zoning district under the Zoning & Development By-law, BC Assessment property tax report values, designated floodplain status, fire hall and hydrant proximity, and sewer main effluent type.

What's Included in a Vancouver Property History Report

Issued Building Permits

Complete issued-permit history from the City of Vancouver Open Data Portal. The City publishes issuance date only, so every permit is labelled Issued. Current inspection or completion status is not published by the City of Vancouver, and the report discloses this directly rather than inferring status.

Zoning & Land Use Context

Current zoning district under the City of Vancouver Zoning & Development By-law, with plain-language explanation of common districts (RS-1, RT-8, RM, C-2, CD-1, and others). Site-specific CD-1 sites are flagged so the reader knows to consult the specific CD-1 by-law.

BC Assessment Values

Year built, current land value, and current improvement value drawn from the City of Vancouver Property Tax Report (BC Assessment). Assessment is only shown when the parcel resolves to exactly one address at the location; ambiguous matches are silently omitted.

Designated Floodplain

Vancouver includes coastal, riverfront, and low-lying areas along False Creek, English Bay, Burrard Inlet, and the Fraser River. The report indicates whether the property is within the City of Vancouver Designated Floodplain, which triggers Flood Construction Level requirements.

Infrastructure Context

Distance to the nearest City of Vancouver fire hall, in-service hydrant proximity within 300m, and sewer main effluent type (Combined, Sanitary, or Storm) directly from the City's sewer mains dataset.
