Inside the homes
What to look for in a Mission property.
Construction, improvements and site details translated into practical buyer and seller questions.
Renovations
Ask for permits, plans, warranties and invoices where material work has been completed.
Site and street
Lot position, grade, orientation, access, parking and immediate surroundings can change the comparison.
Ownership details
Confirm title, condominium or association documents, insurance and other obligations that apply to the property form.
Construction and renovation context
Read the effective age, not just the year built.
