How to choose an apartment for sale

You have chosen 2-3 variants of apartments that are of interest as a potential place of residence. Get ready to master the Role scout to make sure that new home will not be for you the punishment of the Lord, the newspaper "Today".

At each of these studies have not spent a single day. Starting, of course, must be comfortable with the evaluation of zhilmassiva. Here there are lots of nuances, and your accentuation on them depends on objective factors, and from the personal life situation.

The owner or agent representing their interests, said that close to home - an excellent transport interchange. But if the busy highway is closer than 50 meters from home, you turn into a filter for exhaust gas vehicles, pollution from which up to 80% of the total environmental damage in cities. Oh, you yourself car enthusiast? Then find out whether there is parking in the vicinity of the house, where you can park, and if there is free space. None of those - wait for the return of tenants (somewhere after 21.00), and Think about whether there is a yard free snout, which can stick your iron horse.

If you use public transportation, we recommend you roll up to the nearest bus stop to home in rush hour, I mean the hours of 8 am and see how easy is it to enter into a minibus / bus. In this sense it is more convenient if the house is located near the terminus, where you will not be "extra herrings in a barrel".

Definitely a negative factor - located closer than 100 meters from the house power lines (power line): low-frequency electromagnetic radiation from them can trigger cardiovascular disease and nervous disorders. Injury frequency radiation from base station antennas of cellular communication has not been proven scientifically - supposedly it quickly fades and is not a health beat. Doubt? Then check that at home or on the neighboring these towers there.

Clearly, it is worth to see whether there is around supermarkets, pharmacies, clinics and other infrastructure. And if you already have a small child or are planning to "buy" - and in the vicinity of the kindergarten. Do not believe your eyes, go to kindergarten in person: many of them because of the fertility decline had already become in our office. And with the school - a question. Not the fact that in the nearest to the house your child will receive strong base of knowledge for admission to the university. Therefore immediately find out the rating of the school (gymnasium, lyceum) in the area - these data are absolutely open.

If the intelligence on zhilmassivu you get mostly morning and evening, then about a specific home they better take the day. Easy task, but eventually you will get a lot of useful information. Ready? Go!

In the capital, many damaged houses. They are easy to identify by eye: the walls are cracked, and if they are already patched and gray lines on the white concrete and red-brick wall of their vykazhut. So, the house began to crumble and buy it risky housing. Should be alerted and the external insulation, installed by tenants individually: these "patches", usually on the end walls, means that the house was poorly heated. And if you are offered an apartment in the end, it will certainly be cold.

If the aim was to "house" on the top floor of Khrushchev, to give preference to a gable roof, triangular, front-faced, flat, which has probably freezing, course and flooded your home. But if this house has an attic or a technical floor, then you will be able to privatize meters above your apartment, turning it into a two-tiered. Be sure to ask ZhEKe, when the last major overhaul was made at home or at least updated roof. The most common - even in Soviet times. So, we must personally enter the attic and find out whether the roof does not leak. The key to the attic hatch can be taken from the caretaker domouprava or residents of the last floor. How to recover? Frankly speaking, are going to buy an apartment here - and certainly will give it to you.

With flat on the ground floor - also confusion. Well, if the tenants have agreed between themselves and welded shut hatches garbage, agreeing to make garbage in bags. But in the end bins are usually overflowing. In winter, when food waste they do not rot, it is tolerated. In the summer, they will exude a stench that opening the window, you will feel an inhabitant of the landfill. And if the wet basement smell is disgusting, the door apartment you will not hide. Moisture on the walls may rise to you and ... see how Unstick wallpaper and mold settles in the bathroom.

It is important to assess the degree and "killed" the entrance, the elevator (in the "Czech" and other "brezhnevkah"), and especially - the doors of tenants. If they are new, armored, then the contingent in the house worthy. Conversely, if the old door with a rugged lining, therefore, poor people live here, interspersed with hooligans: unflattering neighborhood.

Actually, how do you get into the house? If the entrance is the concierge, but you simply entered into it, citing the fact that visiting a national N (name of the seller and the apartment number you already know), then the house virtually unguarded. Similarly, if there is intercom incoming-outgoing tenants you wasted. Checked, both schemes are often triggered. Once in the house, socialize with neighbors seller. Particularly valuable information from tenants on the floor below or above this apartment. They'll lay out, whether there have been poured into the entrance, occur whether the scandals at the site, as long disable the hot water, and other problems at home will be given to the surface.

Finally, you entered the apartment to view. Here you should forget about the embarrassment and literally every corner, every crack of view and felt.

Presumably you've already pre-determine which arrangement of water in the house - upper or lower. In the latter case, when it comes to housing on the top floor of a 9-etazhki, pressure for hot water is often not enough. Check out this simple: open the taps in the kitchen and bathroom - and immediately see how powerful pressure.

An important point - the existence of hot and cold water. For municipal standards, if such devices in the home is not on each other tenants put in a month for 5.5 cubic meters of cold water (rate -2.87 UAH / cu. M) and 3,5 - hot (worth 10,05 UAH / m). And if, say, you buy an apartment for a family of 3 persons, in the absence of the counter will be forced to pay for water 153 UAH. month. And if any - on a checked - on the strength of 70-80 USD. Given that May will be another increase in tariffs, the difference in costs for the actual used and borrowed "from the ceiling," the water will increase.

Pay special attention to the pipes on which the kitchen and bath water is supplied. If they are old steel coated with rust (and her, and fresh paint can not hide, still surface of the pipe will be uneven), it can break at any moment and fill not only your home but also the neighbors below. At the same time ensure proper operation of stop valves: valves on the pipes should be easy to twist, or in case of a breakthrough, you can not cut off the water and thereby minimize the damage caused to housing.

Fungus in the bathroom and / or toilet and you can easily determine by eye, and the smell uchuete. This trouble is especially dangerous if your family has allergies.

Further, even if the apartment is not butt, it can freeze. On the eve of your visit, the owners can warm it a powerful radiator, but this trick is easy to disavow. Check how hot the battery in the rooms. And better yet - walk hand literally all the walls: you will feel, where the corner is blowing (which means that there are cracks in the joints), and freezing the wall, which the hosts usually drapes carpets, you'll find in this case.

If the floors in the hallway, bathroom and toilet are painted, jump on them and, moreover, "including the ears." You will hear the crackle - was to be, tile laid on a bad solution or self leveling compound and after a year or two will split. And if underfoot - linoleum, its unevenness also show that the coupler is made anyhow. From flooring that is easier - creaking or, worse still, scheritsya gaps between the dies, therefore, replacing it with you to shine in the next 3-5 years.

Of course, if there are plastic windows, a considerable advantage. But check how tightly they are closed, because if the rubber seals worn out, so carpentry will soon be repaired and the cost will amount to more than one thousand hryvnia.

Of course, check whether the glazed terrace / balcony. Besides, if there is a wooden joinery, rather than metal plastic, it's enough to power 10 years.

Naturally, the copper wiring is preferable to aluminum. How to find this out? Ask roll out any wall outlet and see what wires to it summed up.

Finally, make sure there was any illegal alterations apartment. To do this, compare it to plan the technical passport at home so that he personally litsezreete. After all, if you later want to sell now buy an apartment, will have to do legitimizing illegal alterations.

At the current level of printing mass appeared fraudsters trying to sell an apartment on forged documents. Cases where the imaginary hosts provide customers false certificates of title and information characteristics of the BTI.

Protection here, in general, it is easy. But I have to do it personally, because real estate agents do not incur liability if you sell a crook does not belong to his apartment. Pre-need to take a photocopy of certificates for housing and check in BTI, issued if it works. Data on home ownership can break on a national database of any notary. So you can find out beforehand whether the landlord is such, is not effected the arrest on its sale, is not whether it is in the pledge.

During the identity of the sale lawyer experienced eye can determine the authenticity of the certificate of ownership. And if he is having the slightest doubt about his identity - better give up the purchase, transfer time of the transaction. Let the owner can prove that its documents are real.

What papers should be demanded

The seller should put you a bunch of documents with the originals, photocopies are not suitable.

• Main - proof of ownership housing: a contract of sale, donation or exchange, the certificate of privatization or inheritance.

• Passports and identification codes of all co-owners, and if among them are minors - their birth certificates.

• Permission to guardianship bodies, if the number of owners have failed the citizens or those who are under 18 years old.

• Certificate-description to the apartment of the ICE.

• If it is acquired during a marriage - confirmed by a notary consent of the husband / wife on her sale.

• And if sold by proxy - notarized power of the representative owners.

What could be simpler, it would seem to give / receive money for an apartment. However, there are subtleties that can escalate into conflict.

Of the agreed amount, and recalculated the parties put in a cell bank, which has two locks with different keys. One key to her gets the seller, the second - the buyer. After signing the contract of sale, the latter must give the seller your key, so that he took the Cash. But sometimes the buyer begins to demand additional discounts, but otherwise the key clamps. Either the seller, taking the money, argues that the cell had less than agreed, and on that basis refused to move out and requires termination. Trials with it may last for years ...

To avoid such inconsistencies, it is better to transfer money from hand to hand in the presence of at least two disinterested witnesses. This can be a notary with an assistant or staff of real estate agency.
