Buying a home is a more complex process, than repair of apartments or a Saturday trip to the supermarket. It's about choosing a place, where it is planned to live in the next few or even decades. Therefore, one must consider, what to look for when looking for your dream.
Purpose of purchase
The answer to this question is critical to making the right choice.. There are three main options:
- The desire to live independently and the search for the first own home is implied;
- Family grows, therefore we need more housing;
- Purchase for business, to take advantage of the rental.
Location
In every city, some areas are considered "good", while others have a slightly worse reputation. Of course, this opinion influences property prices. This question should be considered in a more practical way.. What does a person need, who goes for himself an apartment? Proximity of universities, large office buildings or at least very good access to these places, affects quite strongly the choice of housing.
It is also worth paying attention to communications., including public transport (bus, tram, metro or rail) and road infrastructure. Waste time in the morning and afternoon, standing in traffic jams, will not make anyone happy. People with children or planning to have them will also need to look for a kindergarten and school nearby.. Also worth checking out, as in the future new house the environment with the noise from the streets. Finally, How are things, especially in the summer, with the presence of trees and in the selected area.
Whatever the goals, for which the apartment is being bought, necessary to find out, how are things with neighboring territories? Need to understand, any city is and will be a huge construction site for a long time. So you should familiarize yourself with the state plans for nearby places.. maybe, a skyscraper will be built on the site in front of the apartment, which will cover the sun. Or, may be, in 200 meters in five years a new ring road will be launched.
From the developer or owner?
If you have time and you can wait a little for the completion of the house, you can get more. Than previously invested money, the more choice of apartment. Thus, there is a chance to find a home, which best meets expectations. For some, it will be a two-sided three-room apartment., for others - it will be on the top floor, others will look for housing with windows to the courtyard, not outside. It will not be superfluous to pay attention to the price, because when buying from a developer, the apartment will be "virtual" for a long time. Therefore, there is some risk and you can expect more flexibility from the company in price negotiations., than when buying a home in an already built house.
