Erindale's housing stock includes a genuine mix of ages, and whether a specific two-family property's second unit was ever permitted matters more to its price than the neighbourhood label does. The City of Saskatoon requires a building permit confirming egress windows, ceiling height and fire separation before a second unit counts as legal, financeable space.
A lender will only credit a second unit's rent toward a buyer's mortgage qualifying once that permit file exists, so two visually identical two-family properties in Erindale can support very different offers depending on paperwork alone. A $400 to $600 home inspection tends to flag a missing permit's physical signs before financing closes.
