Pre-Offer Checklist
Pull permit records on the specific address to confirm build year before structuring any inspection. 1990s construction requires a more thorough pre-offer inspection framework than 2000s or 2010s stock.
1990s systems: Roof age, electrical panel brand (Federal Pacific/Zinsco check required — do not skip on 1990s stock), polybutylene plumbing check required, and HVAC age. Both FP/Zinsco and polybutylene exposure are real on 1990s Florida construction — confirm both before contract.
Townhome HOA coverage: Townhome HOA structures often cover exterior maintenance, roof reserves, and insurance differently than single-family HOAs. Confirm exactly what the Sparrow Run HOA covers and what it costs before any offer — the HOA coverage scope directly affects your inspection and insurance obligations.
School zone: Verify school zone assignment at palmbeachschools.org with the specific address before any offer. Never rely on Zillow or listing agent verbal confirmation.

Brian Wilder's Advisory Note
30 years of Palm Beach County transactions tells Brian which questions protect buyers before contract and which surprises show up post-closing. For Sparrow Run specifically: pull the HOA financials and confirm the full scope of HOA coverage before contract — townhome HOA coverage is structurally different from single-family and the scope directly affects your inspection and insurance obligations. Confirm the Federal Pacific/Zinsco panel and polybutylene plumbing status before contract, and verify the school zone at palmbeachschools.org before any offer — not during inspection contingency.
