Because the sector is still relatively new, University Heights has less of the older character housing that other Saskatoon neighbourhoods carry, which means fewer permit and mechanical surprises but also fewer smaller, older bungalows to downsize into within the area itself.
A senior selling out of University Heights should expect a City of Saskatoon zoning and assessment process like any other city property, and a home there sold with proper documentation of any secondary suite or addition tends to hold its value better than one relying on the assessment file alone.
