How This Page Helps

Verified apartmentA public rental/apartment registry can verify that a building is registered as an apartment building when the source supports it.

Condo candidateA multi-unit building may be a condo candidate when signals suggest residential density, but it remains unverified until condo-specific evidence exists.

Mixed useRetail, office, rental and residential uses can overlap, so mixed-use candidates need extra source review.

Buyer relevanceApartment registry records can still help buyers understand neighbourhood building stock and avoid assuming all towers are condos.

Public wordingCandidate labels should never visually imply verified condo status.

Operating Principle

Not every apartment is a condo, and not every condo candidate should become a condo profile.

Unknown fields stay labelled as not verified yet, source needed or pending verification. Users should confirm building-specific information independently before decisions.
