01 / ARCHITECTURE & CHARACTER
Read the streets,
then the house.
Older cottages and contemporary infill often make a close comparison possible within a short walk. Look past the façade to the lot: building placement, outdoor space and the relationship between front and rear structures can matter as much as style.

02 / ON A VISIT
Put the map
into perspective.
South First and South Congress provide different ways to approach the area. Notice the transition from commercial corridors to residential blocks, rather than assuming the whole neighborhood has one consistent pace.
- Visit the same block during the day and in the evening.
- Understand parking, access and any shared-site arrangements.
- Check the property’s records rather than inferring age or condition from style.
