Real estate law in Richmond
Richmond is an island city with significant flood plain considerations across most of its land base. The city has a rapidly growing high rise market in City Centre, heritage detached neighbourhoods in Steveston, and large townhouse developments in Hamilton and South Richmond.
What makes Richmond closings different
Most of Richmond is in a flood plain area, which affects building permits, insurance requirements, and (for some properties) covenants registered against title. We confirm flood plain status and any related covenants before closing.
