Separate completed improvements from open work
For a Dallas house, make a short list of additions, major repairs and work that stopped before completion. The city directs customers to DallasNow for current application and permit status. Use the actual address and record numbers when available, and confirm jurisdiction if the mailing address and city boundary differ. A permit record should be considered alongside the current physical condition, not treated as a substitute for seeing the house.

- Any additions or major systems work you know about
