In this episode of the Keeping it Real podcast, Jacquie McCarnan explores the concept of strata windups, where owners opt to sell their units, often to developers, due to rising maintenance costs and special levies. With a focus on providing clarity amidst the complexities, Jacquie breaks down the process, from the reasons behind windups to the considerations for both owners and developers. 


Through a hypothetical scenario, Jacquie illustrates the financial and regulatory factors at play, offering insights into how decisions are made. She also highlights the impact of new provincial legislation on developers' strategies and shares recommendations for navigating the winding road of real estate in an ever-evolving landscape.
