Burnaby Farm and Acreage FAQ
Where are Burnaby’s acreages located?
Most rural style parcels are in Big Bend and parts of South Slope near the Fraser River. These areas include ALR land, small farms and greenhouses.
What should buyers verify before purchasing in Burnaby?
Confirm ALR status and permitted uses, services and access, any floodplain considerations, title charges and easements, and building or outbuilding permits. Independent inspections and professional advice are recommended.
Can I add a second dwelling or run an agri-tourism use?
Possibilities depend on zoning, ALR policy, servicing and setbacks. Always confirm current requirements with the City of Burnaby and the Agricultural Land Commission before planning additional dwellings or business activity.
