    Is There a Speculation & Vacancy Tax

    in Whistler, BC?

    You may have heard that there's a Speculation & Vacancy tax in some areas of British Columbia and you're wondering if that applies to Whistler. The very short answer is...

    Nope

    As it stands in 2022, there is no Speculation & Vacancy Tax that applies to the Whistler market. 

    This tax only applies within the following areas: Victoria, Nanaimo, Lantzville, Metro Vancouver (not including Lions Bay), UBC & the UBC Endowment Lands, Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Mission, Kelowna, and West Kelowna.
