Property information request
Submit a property information request to obtain copies of City documents and plans from the Building and Permitting branch regarding a specific property or properties. We do not guarantee the availability of information for all files. We endeavour to provide accurate information for the property file search in a timely manner and ensure the privacy of property owners is protected and copyright regulations are followed.
A Property Information Request (PIR) is a process to provide copies of City documents and plans from the Building & Permitting branch regarding a specific property or properties.
Owner's Authorization signed by the property owner(s). A City of Kelowna Owner's Authorization form or Real Estate Listing will be accepted alongside a Property Information Request form in lieu of obtaining the owner's signature. If the property is a strata, authorization from the Strata Council is also required. Digital signatures must be Docu-Verified.
The rate for a property information request is $30 an hour. Standard requests will be billed for 1.5 hours, totaling $47.25 with GST included. Any complex requests requiring additional time beyond the initial 1.5 hours will incur a further $30 per hour fee which will be added once the file search is complete.
Fees are payable by cash, cheque, or debit in person, or by credit card online (you will receive an email with a link to pay). Upon receipt of payment, files are sent via One Drive.
In addition, homeowners requesting information prior to submission of a building permit can have the property information request fee applied as a credit towards their building permit fees, with proof of payment.
