Advising clients buying new condominiums in Alberta requires knowledge of current legislative schemes and their practical effects. This paper identifies those key legislative schemes and highlights un-proclaimed amendments.  There is particular focus on how changes to the Condominium Property Act, RSA 2000, c C-22 may affect the condominium warranty program. In addition, there are practice points that indicate how changes to the condominium warranty program may affect clients and how to best advise your clients.
