⚠️ Hidden cameras are being discovered in Vancouver Airbnbs, condos, and offices across the Lower Mainland.
Vancouver Is Canada’s Most Active Short-Term Rental Market — And One of Its Highest-Risk Cities for Hidden Cameras
Vancouver has one of the most active short-term rental markets in Canada. From fully furnished Yaletown condos and Gastown lofts to Airbnb properties in Kitsilano and the West End, Vancouver’s rental landscape creates a high volume of furnished units where hidden cameras are installed without guests’ knowledge. The city’s position as a major Pacific business hub also makes its boardrooms and executive meeting rooms frequent targets for corporate audio surveillance.
Domestic surveillance following relationship breakdowns, GPS trackers on vehicles belonging to estranged partners, and corporate espionage in Vancouver’s thriving tech and real estate sectors are all leading reasons residents and businesses contact our team. Our certified TSCM technicians serve Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Richmond, and the entire Lower Mainland — arriving discreetly in unmarked vehicles to conduct thorough, professional sweeps.
Vancouver Short-Term Rental Risk by Property Type
Not all Vancouver rentals carry the same surveillance risk. Here is how different property types rank based on our sweep findings across the Lower Mainland.
Think Your Vancouver Property May Be Compromised?

Vancouver Client Experiences
What Our Vancouver Clients Have Said
“I was renting a furnished condo in Yaletown for two months and had a persistent feeling something was wrong. The team found a hidden camera inside a USB charging hub on the kitchen counter. The report helped me pursue action against the property owner. I cannot recommend this service enough.”
Michael C.Client in Yaletown, Vancouver
“Before a major Pacific Rim contract negotiation in our Vancouver boardroom, we brought Spy Device Detection in for a full sweep. They found a wireless audio transmitter planted under the conference table weeks earlier. This service is essential for any serious Vancouver business.”
Sandra K.Business Director, Downtown Vancouver
“I went through a difficult separation and genuinely believed my Burnaby home was being monitored. The technician arrived in a plain car. Two hours later I had a full written report and finally felt safe. Outstanding professional service — completely discreet from start to finish.”
David R.Client in Burnaby, BC

We specifically target smoke detectors, electrical outlets, USB chargers, alarm clocks, picture frames, ventilation grilles, televisions, and any recently installed or relocated items — all common concealment locations in Vancouver condos, homes, and offices.
Will my Vancouver building management or strata know a sweep took place?
No. Our technicians arrive in plain clothing and unmarked civilian vehicles. No signage, no uniforms, no branded equipment. A confidentiality agreement is signed before every engagement. Your building management, concierge, strata, or household contacts will have no indication a sweep occurred.
