Schools come under the Halton District School Board and the Halton Catholic District School Board; confirm the school for any address.
What should buyers check in a Headon townhouse complex?
Most complexes are now thirty-plus years old, so ask for the reserve fund study and see how the corporation has handled roofs, windows, siding and paving. Check the status certificate for special assessments, and compare fees on what they cover. For a house, check the roof, furnace and air conditioner ages and any past basement water.
