Important to note that there are six buildings in the project built over several years and each with its own strata and Bylaws so whatever is written here does not apply for every building!

"Great Place To Live"

The first original review of this building was submitted by a previous owner who sold their unit. The problems mentioned were simply "growing pains" because it was a new building. A new Strata Council has been elected and things are moving along nicely. Corinthian Estates is a great place to live.

Most people buying a condo have little if any understanding of the pros and cons of condo living. There are some downsides to condo living and you need to educate yourself prior to buying. Since I moved in 3 years ago 3 more buildings have been built and that in itself causes challenges. Also having 6 indivudual strata corporations who have to deal with common property and its various problems can be frustrating. If you know in advance about the limitations of condo living I think you will find Corinthia A good place to call home

The first year I'm an owner of Condo in Corinthia Estates. I moved here a year ago and love my Condo. I was quite surprise to read the negative comments from "owner". Every where you live has it challenges but the writter has not mentioned the positive things that made him buy in the first place. Corinthia estates is a very quiet and clean. Outside my windows I here the crickets and frogs. During the morning hour the birds are chirping away. Driving though Crown Isle to Corinthia Estates where hanging baskets are dangling full of beautiful flowers in bloom. The neighborhood is very upscale. It so relaxing to know this is your neighborhood. the grounds are kept well with all kinds of greenery and a small fountain. Views of the mountains, the glacier surround you. The buildings are all pleasing to the eye. So coming home every night I count my blessings. I enter into an underground security parking were my own parking spot out of the rain and wind. Then enter into the elevator or Lobby. The Lobbies are luxuriously decorated and pick up my dry mail and a paper. You have to come and experience it for yourself, I feel it's a pleasant and peaceful environment. I'm very happy with my purchase!! I think it should get two thumbs up!

These are not growing pains, the problems at Corinthia Estates We are all looking for fresh air to breath.

whoever believes vacation rentals should not be aloud by owners at corinthea estates has it positively wrong. Some of us are good renters, etc., and help the owner financially manage the condo.

I agree with above. Vacation rentals should not be allowed by owners at Corinthians Estates. I feel that the idea is very wrong.This was never an issue before, why now?

"Owner"

Don't buy here, too many rental units. Attempting to get limit on number of rental units to be allowed but project builder, Muchalat Const. still owns too many of these units and does not want number of rental units to be fixed as they rent them out. Bylaws are just about non existant, try ing to get them tightened up. Presently snowmobiles, lumber , tires stored in underground rental unit parking stalls.

Above review was sumbitted by previous owner who sold their unit. Items mentioned were simply a matter of "growing pains". New Strata Council now in place and things are coming along nicely. Corinthian Estates is a wonderful place to live.

He sold his unit for other reasons , condo management needs To work for the owners and not the builder!

Great Place to Live, right! Clearly written by a realtor, locals and owners know Corinthia's reputation, only folks buying appear to be from out-of-province who haven't had time to get a sense of the real issues.

most vacation rentals at corinthea estates are professionals and look after the rental, plus are willing to pay good rental fees per month
unregistered user on March 4 2016:
why not rent a condo at corinthea estates to, eg., a senior who would honor the beautiful condo and take care of it, plus pay rent for 2 months holiday. I, for one have stayed at a condo there previously and looked after it as if it was my home. From Alberta
