In Listing Management, Foundation Details is a multi-select field that describes the type(s) of foundation on which a property sits. Starting Tuesday, August, 31, this field is now required for the following structure types in Bright:

  • Detached
  • Twin/Semi-Detached
  • End of Row/Townhouse
  • Interior Row/Townhouse

When any of the above structure types are selected, there will no longer be a “None” option, and the field will be required.

Please note, this change has been made for new listings only. On-market listings with a list date prior to August 31 that do not have this information included will not need to be updated to accommodate the new requirement.

How can I get this information?

If you are listing a property and do not know what to enter for this field, here are some resources that may be helpful:

  1. Depending on the location, some public records may contain this information.
  2. If the property has one, check with the homeowner association or condo/coop association.
  3. Consult previous appraisal reports.
  4. Look at other listings in the area.
  5. Use Listing Assistant to see if there are any previous listings for the property that may include Foundation Details.
  6. Check with your seller, or talk to your broker for additional guidance.

Foundation Details is located under Basement and Foundation in Listing Management:
