What to consider when buying a New House?

Are you a young professional or an NRI who wants to invest in real estate in a developing area? Or is it your first home? With the real estate boom going on, ensuring that you buy the dream home at the right time at the right price is not an easy task. And before getting into action, you will have to do the required research of the areas thoroughly. While doing the research it is significant to consider if the purchase is purely an investment or do you plan to stay in the house for a long time? Making up your mind on the purpose of buying the property would ease the whole process to some extent. However, here are some key points that demands attention prior to deciding on the area. 

Budget 

Apart from many considerations, you should first fix your budget while buying. Fix a starting range and the upper limit beyond which you do not want to stretch. It is also wise to consider the loan factor along with the percentage of loan. Remember that there is always an added expenditure apart from the property price like the brokerage fee, registration cost, and so on. We will have to be prepared for those expenditures as well. 

When opting for a high rise apartment, the cost might increase with every floor you go up. For instance, a house on the 9th floor is pricier than a home on the third floor for obvious reasons like it is less affected by pollution and noise. And this is true especially in the cities. Not to forget the view that one gets with the height is also amazing. 

Some premium builders will charge more for their brand name and you will have to know which brand names are worth the money. For instance, there are builders who are known for the quality of the construction work that they provide. In such cases, it is worth the extra money as you can be rest assured that the building is there to stay, without hassles of cracks and leaks in a few years. Also maintenance costs would be comparatively lesser thus making it a better investment in the long run. With credible builders you are sure to get the best in terms of quality. For anybody an investment in property is decisive and we should definitely opt for renowned builders ensuring a purchase worth the money spent along with a sense of security. 

If you are buying a brand new home, then you will also have to plan for the interior designing, pay extra as property tax, VAT, service tax among other expenditures. With new homes, you have the flexibility to decorate and design the way you want to make it your own and with that comes cost as well. 

Facilities 

After deciding on budget, next come the facilities accessible for the money invested. Novel apartments include residential facilities like playground, parking, clubhouse, security, etc. While you consider outside facilities think of a few factors like the proximity of corporate hubs so that you don’t have to travel too far to your place of work. The locality should have good schools so that your kids or your future kids can get the best education as well. With improved lifestyle, it becomes necessary that the area of choice is close to multiplexes, clubs, lounge bars and airports. If you have an active social life then you need to consider these things as you don’t want to travel too far in the ever increasing traffic to reach your destinations. 

In all, if you are a serious buyer who has all the information and aggressively search in the targeted area with all your requirements in mind, you will be able to land on the right property. Your dream home will no longer be a dream but will be a reality very soon!
