The numbers, as they actually are.

Live coverage numbers, source attribution, and match-flow outcomes. Real where the data exists. Honestly stubbed where it doesn't.

Directory coverage

Live numbers from the current build. These refresh every deploy.

414

BC strata firms tracked

Across 65 cities. Sourced from BCFSA, PAMA, SPABC, and the legacy StrataWatch directory. Merged and deduplicated.

89%

with active BCFSA licence

367 of 414 firms. The remainder are pending verification or have licence-status data from a secondary source we haven't re-confirmed.

100%

geocoded on the map

414 of 414 firms have street-level or city-level coordinates. Addresses missing from source data cannot be mapped.

35%

multi-source confirmed

145 firms appear in at least two of our source registers (BCFSA + PAMA, PAMA + SPABC, etc.). Stronger signal than single-source listings.

Where firms come from

Directory sources, in descending order. A firm can appear in multiple sources.

BCFSA: regulator, primary source
368 firms
PAMA: Professional Association of Managing Agents
50 firms
SPABC: Strata Property Agents of BC
98 firms
StrataWatch: legacy BC directory
113 firms

StrataWatch-only listings carry a thinner signal. Every profile shows its attribution so you can weigh the evidence.

Proxy-signal tests

The monthly data we collect on firm behaviour, not what firms tell us about themselves.

Median first-response time

Pipeline starts Q3 2026. Non-identifying test inquiries sent to each firm's published contact channel; time to first substantive reply logged. Surfaces on company profiles as e.g. "Responded in 3h · tested Apr 2026."

Accepting-new-clients rate

Pipeline starts Q3 2026. Every firm called monthly and asked whether they're accepting buildings under 30, 30–75, 75–150, or 150+ units. Drives match shortlisting.

Small-building-friendly signal

Pipeline starts Q3 2026. Inferred from public portfolio data where >50% of a firm's buildings are under 40 units. Cross-checked against small-strata Google reviews.

Match-flow outcomes

How requests convert, in aggregate. We publish these once volume clears the threshold where individual councils couldn't be identified from the numbers.

Requests with 1+ qualified match

Pending · First 30 days. Percentage of intake submissions that produce at least one firm willing to take the building and meet on a proposal conversation.

Median qualified matches per request

Pending · First 30 days. We target 2–3 per request. Below that, either the building is hard to place or we need more firms in that size band accepting new clients.

Average time to first human response

Pending · First 30 days. Claim: one business day for crisis / switch; two business days for everything else. Will publish the actual distribution once we have it.

Request volume by building type

Pending · First 30 days. Aggregated counts by building type and size band. Published when N > 10 per bucket so no individual council is identifiable.

What we commit to

If a stubbed metric stays stubbed past its start date, we'll say why. If a number here is wrong, we correct the page and keep the source references current. If a metric trends badly (response times creeping up, match rate dropping), we publish it anyway. Steady numbers lie more often than moving ones.

The rule this page plays by

Real where real data exists. Honestly stubbed where it doesn't. When a stubbed number goes live, we say when. If a metric moves in a direction we didn't expect, we publish it anyway. Steady numbers lie more often than moving ones.
