Home / Foreign buyer ban / Homes outside the ban

For buyers from the U.S., Australia, the U.K. and beyond

Homes for sale where Canada’s foreign buyer ban doesn’t apply

Live MLS® listings in B.C. ski towns, lake towns and wine country that sit outside the federal ban, from Big White to Osoyoos to Fernie.

Canada’s foreign buyer ban only covers homes inside Statistics Canada census areas. These B.C. places sit outside them, so the federal ban doesn’t stop someone who isn’t Canadian from buying there today. Other taxes and rules can still apply. Read the full foreign buyer ban guide.
