What this building is known for

Buyer due-diligence checklist

Use these building-specific prompts to structure your document review and professional inspections. They identify questions to investigate, not conclusions about condition.

Construction and major systems

Review the current depreciation report and strata minutes for the building envelope, roof, balconies, drainage, insurance and acoustic concerns. Confirm which components are common property and whether major work is planned.

Age and capital planning

As a 1975 building, the condition and renewal history of original or replaced systems matters more than age alone. Review completed and planned work involving piping, elevators, roofs, envelope, parkade and mechanical systems.

General parking information is available, but the legal stall designation, use rights and any allocation to a specific home must be confirmed. General storage information is available, but the locker designation and use rights must be confirmed.
