Verdict
This posting exhibits multiple moderate-to-strong fraud signals that collectively raise significant concern. The employer claims a Victoria location but directs applicants to mail resumes to a residential property in Saanich (3918 Ascot Dr), which differs from the company's registered Duncan office. The applicationAddressType is explicitly residential, a very strong fraud indicator. Combined with the location mismatch between posting and registered address, and the requirement for physical mail submission, the posting approaches high-risk territory despite some legitimacy factors (real registered contractor, business name match, detailed job description).
