What's Included in Maintenance Fees
One of the standout financial benefits of living at Capistrano 2 is that the monthly maintenance fee covers gas, heat, and hot water — costs that can add up quickly for condo owners elsewhere. For retirees and downsizers on a fixed income, this kind of predictable, all-inclusive fee structure makes budgeting significantly easier.

Capistrano 2 has been proactively maintained over the years. Key capital improvements include:
- Rainscreening completed — addressing one of the most common concerns for buyers evaluating older Lower Mainland buildings
- New roof installed in 2007
- New boilers installed in 2009
These upgrades speak to a well-managed strata that has taken care of the building envelope — a critical consideration when buying into any concrete or wood-frame building in the region.
