The architects underline the assistance that guarantees comfort, safety and appreciation in the acquisition of a new property
The purchase of a property is one of the most important steps of anyone’s life, so make the decision safe is essential. However, moved by the excitement of the moment, many buyers end up neglecting the fundamental criteria, which can directly affect comfort and routine over the years. To avoid unpleasant surprises, it is necessary to carefully analyze every detail.
Knowing this, therefore, the architects Danielle Dantas and Paula Passos, in front of the Dantas and Passos Arquitura office, highlight what cannot be missing Control list. Check!
1. Consider your priorities
Before programming visits, contact brokers or looking for sales sites, you have to stop and reflect: what are I really looking for in a property? For Paula Passos, this simple question is what begins to drive the purchase processBut it must be consistent with the lifestyle of the residents, the current needs and future plans.
“It could be the house of dreams, but if it is not prepared for change and adversity, the promise becomes a problem. So making a car -analysis to know exactly what you expect from the property helps to filter the options better and save time,” he says.
Therefore, for this initial moment, it is worth considering basic issues as how many people will live in the property, what is the expectation of stay in the place, if there is a need for family growth, home office, accessibility and other specific uses, such as: for example: for example:
- Minimum dimensions necessary to meet the needs of residents;
- Property for use or investment;
- Need of the outdoor area, balcony or space for pets;
- Proximity of public transport, schools and trade;
- Preference for ready -made properties or the will to face a reform;
- Total budget limit, including acts, changes and improvements;
- Life services (gym, swimming pool, Coworking).
The architect underlines that collecting this information soon facilitates the decision -making process.
2. Evaluate the location
The place of the place is also extremely important. Nowadays, being close to public transport, schools, hospitals, pharmacies, markets and daily services that can mean a better quality of life. For example, for families with children and pets, the proximity to parks, squares and forest areas is essential to guarantee the physical and mental benefits of the little ones. “Many times, living in a neighborhood with good mobility pays more than one apartment Larger and cheaper in a distant region, “says Danielle Dantas.
In addition, it is worth noting whether there are buildings and reforms that can generate excessive noise, as well as committed roads, pollution and even night bars in the immediate vicinity that can become negative points. Therefore, the professional recommends visiting the property at different times for a more realistic vision.
3. Check the rates and rules of the condominium
Nowadays, condominiums are the most targeted places for their services. In apartments or houses, these companies often offer gyms, swimming pools, Playing fields and recreational areas, which add the monthly cost. “It is important to verify that the condominium commission adapts to the budget and if the services offered will actually be used by the family,” says Danielle Dantas.
For the neighborhood neighborhood, the architects recommend that they advance and know the neighborhoodIn addition to understanding the rules of the place. “A simple conversation with the owners and the reading of the minutes of the assemblies can reveal valuable information, whether for SIM or not,” says the duo.
4. Take a look at the ownership documentation and outstanding
As for bureaucracy, the property registration number allows you to control the history of property in the notary’s office, as well as to confirm the existence of financial or legal waiting. The Consulting of the Town Hall also avoids surprises with IPTU debts and open rates. It is good to be ready to face the documents and hire a professional who helps the entire process.
5. Check the flexibility for reforms
In this case, not all properties allow the integration of the environments or the removal of the walls. Therefore, check if the property is able to manage reforms avoid the headache before purchasing. “Many customers are enchanted by the idea of ​​transforming the dispositionBut the structure of the building does not always allow changes, “explains Paula Passos.
It is also necessary to understand that the new buildings can have lower condominium rates at the beginning, but over time the shopping increases with the aging of the structure. In the older buildings, the costs of Repairs and maintenance They are often already present by the acquisition.
6. Observe the position of the windows
The choice of a property with a good natural light input significantly influences wellness and energy saving, since well -enlightened environments tend to transmit a sense of amplitude, reduce the need for artificial light during the day and help to create a pleasant and welcoming climate.
Therefore, when they visit a property, Paula Passos and Danielle Dantas observe carefully position of the windowThe incidence of the sun throughout the day and possible external obstacles, such as nearby buildings or high walls. Together with the elimination, good natural ventilation guarantees air circulation and avoids problems such as mold, smell of humidity and sensation of muffing.
“It is worth remembering that in the colder regions, for example, having windows oriented in the north can increase the use of the heat of the sun, while in very hot places, this same position can require shading solutions such as brothers, curtains or films”, he underlines.
In addition, in homes, it is possible to improve both lighting and ventilation with resources such as skylights, shedsSliding doors and windows positioned in strategic points. Already in apartments, it is worth analyzing if there are windows more than one wall to allow cross ventilation, which is very efficient for the renewal of the air. These factors, often neglected on the first visit, can make a difference in comfort and quality of life in everyday life.
What is the best option, the new or used property?
One of the main questions is if it is more useful to invest in something new or used, but the answer is not unique, the architects explain that everything depends on expectations, budgets and the desire to face possible reforms or adjustments.
New properties, whether they are apartments in buildings or recently accommodation houses recently delivered, offer the advantage of being ready for use, often with ultra -modern finishes and plants adapted to the current lifestyle. On the other hand, the cost tends to be higher and, in some cases, especially in buildings, environments can have lower movies than those found in the old properties.
Old properties can offer important advantages, such as more competitive prices, larger interior spaces and privileged location. However, they can request structural reforms, updates of the structures and adaptations to satisfy the Comfort and security desired. It is essential to evaluate the state of conservation of the structure and consider the cost of these improvements in the total budget.
“A new apartment may not have the ideal dimensions, but allows quick interventions for customization. Already a used house, although it requires a more hydraulic and electrical renewal, can offer freedom and spaces that are barely found in recently released real estate”, concludes Danielle Dantas and Paula Passos.
