Townhouse checklist
- Compare the full monthly cost, not just the price: mortgage, property tax and any condo or POTL fee together.
- On a condo townhouse, read the status certificate before you firm up. It shows the reserve fund, upcoming work and any special assessments.
- End units, garages and finished basements carry a premium. Decide which ones matter to you before you start viewing, so you compare like with like.
- If your complex has a recent status certificate, have it ready. Condo townhouse buyers almost always make their offer conditional on it.
