What evidence has been tendered to the Court of Appeal in the context of a property owner's claim for damages arising from the construction of a neighbouring lot?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from McKnight v Bourque, 2018 BCSC 1342 (CanLII):

In my view, this evidence is qualitatively different from the expert opinion evidence that was tendered in Zhang v. Davies, 2018 BCCA 99, for example, where real estate appraisers were qualified as expert witnesses to address "real estate values" and quantify the actual loss or decline in market value of a property based on the adverse effects of a neighbouring lot's construction.
