Home Warranty Protection 

The Homeowner Protection Office offer resources for “new build” home owners along with lists of authorized third party insurers. Builders must be registered to arrange for insurance before a building permit is filed. This entity is in place to protect the “new build” home owner during and after a new home build.

As of 1999, all residential builders in British Columbia are required to be licensed by the Homeowner Protection Office and arrange for third-party home warranty insurance on proposed new homes prior to obtaining a building permit.
