Do the homework
Your address-level research list
- 1Confirm the municipality and county on the parcel record — a Davidson mailing address is not proof of Town of Davidson jurisdiction.
- 2Look up school assignment for the exact address; assignments can differ between neighboring streets and change over time.
- 3Request the current HOA declaration, bylaws, budget, reserve study and architectural guidelines before you commit.
- 4Ask what the association actually maintains: common areas, amenities, private roads, stormwater features.
- 5Check the FEMA flood map and any stormwater or drainage easements on the lot.
- 6Walk and drive the routes you will use daily, at the times you will use them.
- 7Ask the Town about planned roads, greenways or development near the address.
- 8Confirm water, sewer, trash and internet providers for the parcel.
