The road to the perfect home - the questions you need to ask and what to look out for
07.05.2021


Buying an apartment is the end result of a generous and necessary number of questions. This sentence amazed you, didn't it? You know how many trips you have to make for documents, arrangements or other situations that occur along the way. Primordial are the questions you ask yourself or the real estate agent about an apartment for sale seen. After talking to the agent, getting an overview and deciding to go for a viewing, there are a few things to look out for when you get there.

Your needs at some point represent moments of peace in the future. Here are the most important questions you need to ask before viewing an apartment and especially what you need to consider when you go to see the apartment.

1. Questions about location. Location questions are reference questions if you don't want to run into problems from the beginning. Make sure you have your daily necessities near your home. Public transport close to or maybe a secured parking space, nearby banks, supermarkets or a food market are the topics of some questions. Also, if you love nature and want to have a park nearby or you need to have a school or kindergarten nearby for your children, don't forget to ask the related questions.

2. Questions about the position of the apartment. Make sure you have the privacy you are looking for and that you will enjoy a beautiful view that is not obstructed by other buildings. If you want a warm and bright apartment, where the sunlight shines for most of the day, take into account the orientation of the apartment.

3. Questions about neighbors. It is not enough for you to know a man, especially all the neighbors you will have. But you can ask some questions about them to see if they respect the hours of peace and hygiene, if they are more active people and have habits that could disturb you.

4. Questions about the legal situation. If you want the apartment and want to buy it, make sure it has all the right documents, that the space where the apartment is located has a building permit and check if it is mortgaged or not in order to take the necessary measures.

5. Questions about block administration. Check if the invoices and all obligations are paid on time and also find out how the monthly maintenance is calculated.



After asking all the questions you had to the real estate agent and you decided to go for a viewing, don't forget to pay attention to a few aspects: analyze the changes made to the apartment, check the finishes, take a look at the entrance and the facade of the block and don't forget to document yourself directly from the source regarding the sanitary installations and the electrical system.

Viewing an apartment for sale is essential and requires a lot of attention. Contact a real estate agent to avoid possible dissatisfaction and changes that you may have to make after the purchase. The apartment will be your home and that of your family and must meet all your living standards.
