Home Buying Tip #1: Choose the location of the house carefully.

One of the most important factors to consider when buying a house is the location (or location of the house). You or your family can live in a house with many defects but it is a safe area, surrounded by good neighbors, that is great. Just like that, the defects of the house can be completely overcome. This shows that the location of the house is very important.

When you go to see a house, pay attention to things related to life and the location of the house. For example, see if the house is close to work, if the neighbors are easy-going, if the place is quiet, the means of transportation passing by, parking, shopping, schools, etc.

In addition, pay attention to the surrounding scenery of the house. See if the neighbor's window looks directly into your house? Does the house you are about to buy have a playground for children, pets, planting trees or other uses?

The location of a house/apartment is an important factor to consider when buying a home.

Home Buying Tip #2: Check Your Neighbors Carefully

It is often said that you can have the smallest, most comfortable house if you have great neighbors. Observe what kind of people your neighbors are, do they keep their yards and alleys clean and tidy? Are your neighbors friendly to the people around them, passersby, or to the children playing in their yard?

Home Buying Tip #3: Buy a house with the right area

You may be dreaming of a big house, but do you really need four bedrooms and four bathrooms if you live alone? A big house simply gives you the extra space you need for an office or a space to display your art projects, while increasing your gas bills, buying more furniture, and spending a fortune on decorating.

Not every big house is good

Home Buying Tip #4: Carefully check the legal status of the house

Another important factor to consider before you decide to buy a house is whether it has all the necessary legal documents and procedures. Is the house encroached on or in a planning area? All of these legal factors need to be considered.

Home Buying Tip #5: Take Time to Check the Bedroom and Bathroom Areas

Decide how many bedrooms and bathrooms you want, then compare them to the house you want to buy to see if they fit your criteria. An extra bedroom is a plus. You can use it as a home office, a private studio, or a guest bedroom. If you want more rooms, consult an architect who can advise you on how to create the space and design it according to city regulations.

Home Buying Tip #6: Don't ignore the kitchen area

If the kitchen is the heart of every home, never take a home without a functioning kitchen. Of course, you can always remodel it, but that will cost you a pretty penny.

Home Buying Tip #7: Check Your Closets and Storage

Also consider storage areas such as closets, sheds, attics, etc. If you have a lot of sports equipment, raw materials, discarded clothes, and holiday items such as tents, etc., make sure they are stored in your new home. Of course, you can always rearrange the outside space to create storage. But think about it, wouldn't that make your living space smaller?

Home Buying Tip #8: Pay attention to windows and lighting systems

Proper lighting has a very positive effect on your health and mood.

Pay attention to the natural and artificial lighting systems in the house. Do you want a warm room when the windows welcome the sunlight every morning? Or walk through the dining room, living room, bedroom with different levels of light? Using reasonable lighting has a very positive effect on your health and mood.

One thing to note is that the more realistically you visualize the house you want to buy, the closer it is to your needs, the higher the chance of finding a suitable house. Wish you find a great shelter for your family.
