So what to keep in mind before proceeding to exchange? Experts recommend that first of all choose the right path. Perhaps you have long been engaged in this issue, but can not find an option that meets all your requirements. Exchanges shows that the reason most likely is not that the desired level does not exist, but the fact that his search does not use all possible means are used or unprofessional. There are four main ways to search options exchange.

Think for yourself, decide for yourself

Thus, self-exchange ... Its advantage is usually considered cheapness. But now, due to higher prices for advertising and design, plus it sometimes seems relative. Cons: the real possibility of being cheated - having lost everything, in exchange you can get dirty on the documents flat. Another very sad result - left without the promised additional payment (or, conversely, to give it up, but do not get an apartment instead of buying an apartment or a spelled out in her tenant). Then - have unwittingly lit: publishing advertisements in your phone, you never know in advance if willing to share only interested in your ad. Present and such trifles as the need to wait by the phone calls and the ability to understand the system design.

Invite Brokers

Exchange with a broker is ideal for those who are used to solve their problems someone else's efforts. However, it is worth recalling that there are risks associated with the purity of objects, the calculations in part exchange (difficult to negotiate alone, when its given, as both sides - the person concerned). How can you not think - one has to risk more of another, most often without realizing it. Broker same, not being a legal person can not do calculations, draw up contracts, act as guarantor, and easier for him to disappear, no matter what advice you may give.

Go to Agency

Direct exchange with the agency - the only way out for those who do not want to change yourself, on the one hand, and on the other hand, is not able to privatize their housing. Cons: the difficulty of selecting the desired level, satisfying the interests of all parties and, accordingly, very long time.

Exchange through the sale of today's most frequently used (and use it at no extra cost) way. How is it done? You come to the agency, evaluate your apartment, as well as what is required of you in return. Then decide whether you are satisfied with the difference that you get (or the amount you have to pay extra). If yes, then contracted to sell a prerequisite for the simultaneous purchase of an apartment, whose characteristics will be recorded in the contract. And only Agency employees start to work. In this way, there are two major advantages.

Speed: sell and buy at the same time that you want to replace (with the aid agency, of course), now you can quickly find what version of exchange.

The possibility of broad choices: buying can pick almost any apartment. You no longer need to worry, I arrange for someone your apartment or the amount of surcharge. You just choose from what is proposed.

If you call the agency, it acts as a guarantor of what you are selling an apartment, will not stay on the street with the money: even if you have a buyer for your flat transaction will not take shape until you have found a suitable alternative. In fact, the sale of exchange is different: you are entitled to another apartment in conjunction with the sale of their own.

However, the disadvantages are obvious. First, if your apartment is not privatized and privatizing it is impossible, no agency did not help. Secondly, the agency fees are typically interest on the amount of the transaction, which means that the process will fly in a lot of money. Specifically, - a few thousand dollars.

Nevertheless, recourse to the company experts consider ideal. Provided, of course, that you have not contacted the company one day. Of course, spending the wedge, but with the firm can always ask for the result of work.

We recommend to overtake several offices of different agencies, to find out their conditions, prices, compare offers. Before you call the agent, come to an agreement with relatives: they can be a different view on the requirements for the exchange.

All questions are best resolved on the spot: Let an experienced professional on-site inspect your apartment. Perhaps his assessment may differ from the landlady. Moreover, as a plus or a minus.

Finally, if the agency is ready to take your choice and meet all requirements, we recommend you sign a contract and consolidate what has been said on the paper with a seal. Only at the conclusion of the contract, these relations will differ from the relationship with a broker.
