If, like many other tourists, you have decided to buy a home on the Costa Blanca after enjoying your holidays in Moraira, Jávea, Dénia, Altea or any other of the many coastal towns in the Alicante area, take note because in Montesinos Falcón we are going to give you a series of tips that will help you take into account as much information as possible on the first visit to a home.
Where do I begin?
The first thing you should do to find the house of your dreams is to compile a list with all the characteristics that you want the house to have. As well as defining the budget that you will spend on the purchase of the property and the one that you will allocate to possible reforms.
The next step, and with which you will save more time, will be to go to a real estate agency that will be able to advise you and happily help you in your search. As in Montesinos Falcón, the real estate company will offer you a series of homes that will fit with the characteristics you are looking for.
What should I notice and be aware of?
When it’s time to start the visits between the chosen houses, you will have to analise each house in detail to know and decide if it may or may not be your future home.
- THE AREA: The first thing you must analyse is the area where the property is located. Factors such as noise, communication, traffic or services close to the home will be aspects that at the moment may seem insignificant, but in the long run they will make a big difference, especially economically.
- THE FAÇADE OF THE HOUSE: Whether in the case of a house, apartment or bungalow you should analyse if the property is being taken care of or not. For example, in the case of an apartment, if you had to renovate certain areas of the property, the cost could finish by being very high.
- THE INDOOR: Once analysed the building from the outside, it’s time to look at the details of its interior. To do this, you must check that everything works correctly, if there are any cracks, if the layout of the rooms adapts to your wishes and needs; you should consider all of these details before your move. You should also keep in mind that you will probably want to reform certain areas of the property, and you should consider if those plans are within your budget. For this, pay attention to detail and check the quality of the finishes of doors, windows, partitions, faucets, and so on.
- BATHROOMS AND KITCHEN: Two of the rooms with the most expensive refurbishments are the bathrooms and the kitchen. Focus on observing in detail your ventilation, the installation of gas or electricity, among many other factors. Thanks to the commitment Montesinos Falcón has with their clients, if needed, you will be accompanied at all times, in any type of refurbishment, maintenance or cleaning service to make sure you find your perfect home.
