Tenant Eviction process in BC

[rabka]

My Fellow REIN Members

I have searched for the topics related to eviction process and I believe what I saw is all from AB and ON but I haven`t seen anything from BC. I am going through with the bad tenant process and would like to know how the eviction process works in BC and who are the reliable Bailiff services in Vancouver/Lower Mainland area?

Cheers

Hi RABKA,

I recently evicted a tenant in a small town in B.C. Luckily they left without requiring a bailiff, so I can`t help you with that. The place to look for information is the B.C. Residential Tenancy Office website, where you will find full information regarding evictions - although you do need to hunt around on the site for all the details.

I too found a lack of information on the REIN website regarding issues in B.C., so my only resource was the RTO site. At the moment I`m trying to find a good lease agreement that is specific to B.C.. Hopefully this is something that can be addressed by REIN!

good luck,
Sonja

Thanks Sonja

I may be able to help you with the lease agreement, so give me a call @ 604-351-7491 and we can work this out.

Much appreciated for your reply
RABKA

Hi Rabka,

Depending on the situation, your legal rights to evict vary. If you send me an email, I can send you a couple of guides which detail the rules for evictions in BC. I`ve never used a bailiff, so I can`t refer you to one.

best of luck,
