The answer

Prepare the documents that reduce buyer doubt and closing friction: RPR and compliance context, title or encroachment details, renovation permits and receipts, mortgage payout or penalty context, tax/utility adjustment notes, condo package if applicable, suite or lease documents, warranties, manuals, insurance claims, and known repair records. Legal and title questions should be confirmed with a lawyer.

Calgary-specific context

Calgary document friction often shows up around RPR updates, deck or fence compliance, older permits, basement suite claims, condo document timing, hail or roof records, mortgage payout surprises, tenancy details, and possession-date pressure.
