In the Vancouver census metropolitan area, about 8.3 per cent of condominiums were owned by only non-resident owners, while 2.9 per cent were owned by a mix of resident and non-resident owners.

A new housing report offers detailed insight into how much of B.C.’s property market actually belongs to non-residents.

The report classifies a home as non-resident owned when the majority of owners are non-residents; homes are classified as resident owned if the majority of owners are residents. According to the report, 6.2 per cent of properties in B.C. have at least one non-resident owner: 2.5 per cent of B.C. residential properties are owned by a mix of resident and non-resident owners, while 3.7 per cent are owned strictly by non-resident owners.
