The time to choose a property requires a lot of research, especially with regard to price, as comparisons are the best way to identify whether the value being charged for the property is fair. That is, it is important to look for similar properties in some aspects and check if the values match.
To help you assess the value of the property without making mistakes, we have listed the main aspects of comparison. Check out:
Region
First, it is important to define which region you intend to live in. Knowing whether the neighborhood is of a high standard or not, whether it has a privileged view, whether it is a safe neighborhood, whether the surrounding commercial area meets all needs and whether there is easy access to roads and subway stations, for example, are aspects basic features to be considered in comparison to other properties.
Size
Get to know the length of the property, the number of rooms and the number of rooms and suites available. And, from then on, compare with similarly sized properties in the same area. For a more efficient analysis, inquire about the value of the square meter in the region.
Neighborhood
It may seem irrelevant at first, but be sure to assess the neighborhood. This is a relative factor that will influence the quality of life of each person in a different way.
Are people loud and are there children or animals around? The answer to that question can count on many positives (or negatives!) Depending on your lifestyle. Therefore, visit the same property on different occasions to get a better idea of the routine in your surroundings.
Property age
The age of the property is also an influencing factor in the amount to be charged. Assess, with the help of a specialist, what conditions he is in with regard to the electrical and hydraulic parts, how is the painting of the place, if there is infiltration or other problems that may arise over the years. And be aware, because if the property has undergone a recent renovation, this can be added to the price.
Infrastructure
It is important to check, during the evaluation of the property, the infrastructure that each one offers:
- the coating pattern;
- the finishing pattern;
- accessibility;
- the number of parking spaces in the garage;
- the leisure area with swimming pool or barbecue;
- Among other things.
All of this is reflected in the purchase price.
The technological infrastructure is also an important point to evaluate. Check that there are enough outlet points and that the cellular network reception is good. In a reality where everyone is connected, these details can make a difference when comparing your options.
It was noted that the aspects of comparison are many, and taking all of them into account when analyzing the value of the property requires time and a lot of patience. But don’t get discouraged!
Remember that this is where you intend to live that we are talking about. So the more research you do before you buy, the more satisfied you will be in your new home!
