To guarantee the precise mapping of your property's location, the address provided must be a singular, legitimate street address or a basic intersection. Follow these guidelines for entering property addresses correctly:

Example of a correct address:
5879 Henri-Bourassa Est
This format is direct and allows the mapping system to accurately locate the property. If the property spans a range, like "5875-5879 Henri Bourassa Est", only input one number from the range.

If the property is associated with multiple street addresses, input just one in the address field. Additional addresses can be mentioned in the "Property Description" section.

Avoid unnecessary symbols:
Refrain from using special characters like the number sign (#), the "@" symbol, ampersands (&), excessive dashes, or parentheses within the address.

Intersection notation:
Do not use phrases like "Northeast Corner of", "NEC", or "N.E.C." as they can disrupt the geocoding process.

Addresses with fractions:
An address such as "5879 1/2 Henri-Bourassa" should be simplified to "5879 Henri-Bourassa" to ensure successful mapping.

Lokatix.net utilizes OpenStreetMap and GoogleMap for mapping properties. There are instances where these maps might not reflect the most current information. If your property's location appears incorrectly on the map, we recommend revisiting your property listing at a later time to see if the mapping has been updated.
