Tell Strata Match about your strata. We check firm fit against size, location, capacity, portfolio type, reputation, and issue fit, then send two or three options council can review.

Start here
Use the emergency path when a termination notice is already moving. Strata Match looks for firms with capacity for your building size and calls you back first.
See two or three firms that would actually fit your building before you hand out contact details or sit through another sales pitch.
Small and self-managed buildings need firms that take lower-unit portfolios. Strata Match starts with that constraint instead of sending you into a broad directory.
Your contact details stay with Strata Match until you approve an introduction.

"Our previous firm gave us ninety days' notice. Strata Match came back with three companies in two days, and a one-pager we brought straight to council. We voted one in at the next meeting."

The hard part is knowing who is worth calling and who will actually take the building.
"We don't know who's actually worth calling."
400+ licensed BC firms is too many to screen yourself. Most councils call whoever shows up first on Google.
"Nobody will quote us until we sit through a pitch."
Most firms require a site visit and a 45-minute presentation before giving any numbers.
"We've switched before and ended up no better off."
A council vote, a 30–60 day transition, and real political capital spent. The firm has to fit before any of that is worth it.
"We're not ready to hand out our contact info yet."
Getting a quote usually means getting added to a call list. We don't share your details until you approve the introduction.

Every one of them runs on a council of volunteers.
How it works
The output is a short list your council can review, not a pile of calls to return.
Type, units, municipality, timeline, and what needs to change. Under three minutes. No account.
The shortlist is scored against size, geography, capacity, portfolio type, reputation, and issue fit. Firms are checked before you see the recommendations.
You choose which firms to contact. Strata Match shares your details only with the ones you approve.
What you get back
Every council gets a short email packet: two or three firms ranked by fit, with the reasoning behind each rank. Below is a sample for a 38-unit wood-frame townhouse strata in Burnaby. Your building will produce a different shortlist. The decision format is the same.
The Maplewood Court Strata Council
Vancouver · Burnaby · Richmond
Why them
Focuses on mid-size lowrises. Has kept every building under 40 units it signed in the last three years.
The benchmark
The BC average is $35 per unit, per month — but the real range depends on building size, city, and the $1,500–$2,000 monthly minimum most firms now charge. Run the numbers on your building first.
