Usually, before you look for a new home, you need to decide on the area. It is important to have a clear idea of the:
- location,
- layout you want
- right amount of space
- neighbourhood
- number of the rooms needed etc.
This will help you find the perfect home for you and your family. Also, we suggest considering the availability of kindergartens, schools and parks nearby. They can turn the scale in favour of one property over another.
The short answer to this question is “yes”. You can easily do personal research online. That will give you and your real estate agent a good idea of what you are looking for. You can do a viewing or two. This will show you clearly the working process on the building lot, which is an excellent indication of the quality and the control that is carried out even at the first stage of the construction.
Probably more than once you have been given the advice to conduct an initial mortgage consultation or financial profiling with a bank. The best approach is to obtain indications for potential loan parameters from different banks and compare them thoroughly. Sometimes the slightest difference over the course of 10-20 -30-year loan could save the buyer thousands of euros or levas. Therefore, it is important to have this information early on, and in addition to that it may give the buyer a broader perspective and useful insights for the actual property hunt.
One of the most essential traits of a property and what makes it valuable is the proximity to major roads, public transportation, availability of schools, hospitals and pharmacies. In addition, it is beneficial to consider the presence of public recreational zones within the area.
As mentioned above, researching the area is essential. If possible check the surroundings personally before you sign any contracts. Besides, if you have a pet, you`d better ask what are the conditions to take it with you.
When going through the property’s inventory, make sure there aren’t any defects and take note of the state of the items. Last but not least, make sure you know the exact amount of the months` rent.
The history of the achievements of the building company is always a serious factor for the selection and the final decision. The local community and previous client feedback for the residential developers and their projects make a big difference. The team involved is also important. Usually, these people are:
- architects
- construction engineers
- project managers and supervisors
- marketing and sales teams, etc.
The capacity of these experts is the backbone and condition for successful delivery and they should be considered, as well.
