Ask the seller or agent about the building's reserve fund status and any planned repairs or renovations to the facade or systems. The building's 1991 construction means windows, HVAC, and plumbing may be original or recently upgraded, so request a pre-purchase inspection. Pet policies vary, so confirm pet restrictions with the condo board before committing. The Annex's popularity means resale demand is typically strong, making this a relatively liquid investment.
